I have been getting a lot of emails asking me about this issue, saying that there are more then one "/Type /Pages" inside their PDF file.

YES! But only one of those is the ROOT set.


Example Of a ROOT Identifier Set:

Code:
/Type /Pages 
/Kids [ 2386 0 R 2388 0 R 2389 0 R 2390 0 R 2391 0 R 2392 0 R 2393 0 R ] 
/Count 67
>>
Example of what is NOT the root node:

Code:
/Type /Pages 
/Kids [ 250 0 R 253 0 R 256 0 R 259 0 R 267 0 R 275 0 R 283 0 R 291 0 R 299 0 R 
] 
/Count 9 
/Parent 15770 0 R 
>>
Notice that in the second example there is a "/Parent" tag. This means that the second one is NOT the root. The first example however does NOT have a "/Parent", which means it IS the ROOT.

I hope this clarifies it for everyone.
