The command "pdfgrep --with-filename --page-number ${pattern} ${file-pdf}" is used to search for a specified pattern within a PDF file, displaying the file name and page number where the match is found.
Here is a breakdown of the command:
- "pdfgrep": This is the command itself, which is a tool used to search PDF documents using regular expressions.
- "--with-filename": This option ensures that the output includes the filename along with the matching text.
- "--page-number": This option makes sure that the output includes the page number where the match is found.
- "${pattern}": This is a placeholder for the pattern you want to search for. You need to replace it with the actual pattern you are looking for, using regular expression syntax.
- "${file-pdf}": This is a placeholder for the PDF file you want to search in. You need to replace it with the actual file path or name of your PDF document.
Once you replace the placeholder values with actual values, executing this command will search for the specified pattern in the given PDF file and display the filename and page number for each match.
