During a distiller ripping session I need to catch PS comments info (OK exact name is DSC comments ;-) )
like %%Page:

As it's a comments starting with %, it's not directly "catchable" using a piece of PS code in Prologue.PS for exemple,

Various brand of soft rip (Jaws Harlequin, GhostScript) allow that with specific methods to workaround % comments

Internally distiller do it to allow the "Check DSC comments" option to display all theses warnings and other info in the log, or even to catch OPI comments, fine! But how could it give me a hand catching also theses comments ?


1) Does any body know how to do it within Distiller ?
(Systemdict special operator ? a special dict to setup ? a external callable plug-in or, ...) ?

2) Or at least does anybody know that it can be done or is doable?

Many thanks
