[poppler] How to specify format of output numbering?

[Abigaile Johannesburg]

Dear mpsuzuki,

Thank you for quoting the source file regarding numbering scheme.  When you say

"good syntax to specify numbering format, if possible, which is already used by poppler'suser interfaces."

does that mean there is a way to specify numbering format already?

Thanks,
Abi

But if there are more than 1,000 ouput images, there will be files image-root-nnn.xxx (3 digit number sequence) and image-root-nnnn.xxx (4 digit number sequence). When processing book images in bash, the ordering needs a fix. At the moment I use rename
