Python/PyPDF4:如何在创建的 PDF 中指定/PageLabels? [英] Python/PyPDF4: How do I specify the /PageLabels in the created PDF?

问题描述

我正在使用 PyPDF4 创建一个 离线可读版本《自然》杂志.

I am using PyPDF4 to create an offline-readable version of the journal "Nature".

我使用 PyPDF4 PdfFileReader 阅读单个文章 PDF 并使用 PdfFileWriter 创建单个合并输出.

I use PyPDF4 PdfFileReader to read the individual article PDFs and PdfFileWriter to create a single, merged ouput.

我想解决的问题是有些问题的页码不是从1开始的，例如issue 7805 从第 563 页开始.

The problem that I am trying to solve is that the page numbers of some issues do not start at 1, for example, issue 7805 starts with page 563.

如何在文档目录中指定所需的/PageLabels?

How do I specify the desired /PageLabels in the document catalog?

    for pdf_file in pdf_files:
        input_pdf = PdfFileReader(open(pdf_file, 'rb'))
        page_indices = file_page_dictionary[pdf_file]
        for page_index in page_indices:
            page = input_pdf.getPage(page_index)

            # Specify actual page number here:
            # page.setPageNumber(actual_page_numbers[page_index])

            output.addPage(page)

    with open(pdf_output_name, 'wb') as f:
        output.write(f)

推荐答案

在探索了 PDF 标准和一些黑客之后，我发现以下函数将添加一个创建页面的 PageLabels 条目标签从偏移量开始(即第一页将被标记为偏移量，第二页，偏移量+1，等等).

After exploring the PDF standard and a bit of hacking, I found that the following function will add a single PageLabels entry that creates page lables starting from offset (i.e. the first page will be labelled the offset, the second page, offset+1, etc.).

# output_pdf is an instance of PdfFileWriter().
# offset is the desired page offset.
def add_pagelabels(output_pdf, offset):
    number_type = PDF.DictionaryObject()
    number_type.update({PDF.NameObject("/S"):PDF.NameObject("/D")})
    number_type.update({PDF.NameObject("/St"):PDF.NumberObject(offset)})

    nums_array = PDF.ArrayObject()
    nums_array.append(PDF.NumberObject(0)) # physical page index
    nums_array.append(number_type)

    page_numbers = PDF.DictionaryObject()
    page_numbers.update({PDF.NameObject("/Nums"):nums_array})

    page_labels = PDF.DictionaryObject()
    page_labels.update({PDF.NameObject("/PageLabels"): page_numbers})

    root_obj = output_pdf._root_object
    root_obj.update(page_labels)

可以创建其他页面标签条目(即具有不同的偏移量或不同的编号样式).

Additional page label entries can be created (i.e. with different offsets or different numbering styles).

请注意，第一个 PDF 页面的索引为 0.

Note that the first PDF page has an index of 0.

# Use PyPDF to manipulate pages
from PyPDF4 import PdfFileWriter, PdfFileReader 

# To manipulate the PDF dictionary
import PyPDF4.pdf as PDF

def pdf_pagelabels_roman():
    number_type = PDF.DictionaryObject()
    number_type.update({PDF.NameObject("/S"):PDF.NameObject("/r")})
    return number_type

def pdf_pagelabels_decimal():
    number_type = PDF.DictionaryObject()
    number_type.update({PDF.NameObject("/S"):PDF.NameObject("/D")})
    return number_type

def pdf_pagelabels_decimal_with_offset(offset):
    number_type = pdf_pagelabels_decimal()
    number_type.update({PDF.NameObject("/St"):PDF.NumberObject(offset)})
    return number_type

...
    nums_array = PDF.ArrayObject()
    # Each entry consists of an index followed by a page label...
    nums_array.append(PDF.NumberObject(0))  # Page 0:
    nums_array.append(pdf_pagelabels_roman()) # Roman numerals

    # Each entry consists of an index followed by a page label...
    nums_array.append(PDF.NumberObject(1)) # Page 1 -- 10:
    nums_array.append(pdf_pagelabels_decimal_with_offset(first_offset)) # Decimal numbers, with Offset

    # Each entry consists of an index followed by a page label...
    nums_array.append(PDF.NumberObject(10)) # Page 11 --> :
    nums_array.append(pdf_pagelabels_decimal_with_offset(second_offset))


    page_numbers = PDF.DictionaryObject()
    page_numbers.update({PDF.NameObject("/Nums"):nums_array})

    page_labels = PDF.DictionaryObject()
    page_labels.update({PDF.NameObject("/PageLabels"): page_numbers})

    root_obj = output._root_object
    root_obj.update(page_labels)
