Rename using PDF content?

Hi All,

Hope this is possible.
Is it possible to rename the file from the contents of a PDF.

Say I have a document Frank.pdf. In this document, Line 5 has "Frank Rogers".
Is there a way to specify to use Line 5 (as a line number or position within the document) for the file name?

No.

But if you had a lot of files to do, you could use the "Rename Pairs" (Renaming From A Text File) feature. (You would have to manually extract "line 5" & use that to set up the Rename Pairs file.)

Yes, that I already know about the Pairs file. But how would I extra Line 5 from a 100+ documents?
