# PDF Page Count Verification and Correction This skill provides a systematic approach to ensure PDFs meet target page count requirements through iterative verification and layout adjustment. ## When to Use - Creating PDFs with strict page limits (e.g., reports, summaries, maps) - When initial PDF generation may produce variable page counts - When layout elements (images, tables, text) can cause unpredictable overflow ## Prerequisites - Python with PyPDF2 or fitz (PyMuPDF) installed - PDF generation capability (ReportLab, matplotlib, etc.) ## Workflow Steps ### Step 1: Initial PDF Creation Generate the PDF with your initial layout parameters: ```python def create_pdf(output_path, params): """Create PDF with given layout parameters""" # Your PDF generation logic here # params can include: image_size, table_density, font_size, margins pass ``` ### Step 2: Verify Page Count Check the generated PDF's page count: ```python import fitz # PyMuPDF def verify_page_count(pdf_path): """Return the number of pages in the PDF""" doc = fitz.open(pdf_path) page_count = len(doc) doc.close() return page_count # Alternative with PyPDF2 from PyPDF2 import PdfReader def verify_page_count_pypdf2(pdf_path): reader = PdfReader(pdf_path) return len(reader.pages) ``` ### Step 3: Compare Against Target ```python def check_page_requirement(actual, target_max, target_exact=None): """ Check if page count meets requirements Retu
