Subject: Re: Extracting the hash of a PDF document-Problem with pdf2john.pl

Hi,

I don't normally use Windows and I've never used Strawberry (I'd use
Cygwin and its package of Perl), but I think it should work:

This usage of the "start" command is excessive.  You may try simply:

perl pdf2john.pl LitheUKT.pdf > hash.txt

If this doesn't work, then please copy-paste the specific error messages
you're getting.  Please also mention what version/build of JtR you use
(or where you took this script from).

BTW, in the latest bleeding-jumbo there is not only this Perl script,
but also a similar Python 3 script nearby, pdf2john.py.  Either should
work, but obviously their dependencies are different: Perl + ExifTool
module or Python 3 + pyhanko module.
