Question, i can't get it to work with AHK, here is what i have tried:

[tonne]

Having a.pdf and pdftk.exe in the same directory, this worked for me:

My bad, running %comspec% from AHK automatically sets working directory to scripts folder, i though i was working in "documents and settings". Everything is good now, thatnks.

please can anybody post a working example of how we can execute this command line program from the script?

i tried and succeeded to start from command line but when i try from script
i dont have any results.

the script and pdftk.exe are in the same folder and pdf file as well
how do i get this to work pdftk final.pdf dump_data output final.txt

thanks in advance.
