Description
This script looks at the selected records in the records list and counts up the total number of pages of the records that are PDF files. It also looks inside any folders that are selected.
More generally, this shows how a script can recursively process the selected records in EagleFiler. For example, with slight modifications it could count the records with a certain label, tag, or kind.
