File IDs

PDF files contain an ID (consisting of two parts), used by some workflow systems to uniquely identify a file. By default, cpdf operations leave the file ID unchanged, even when multiple files are created. To override this behavior, add the -change-id option to the command line. This will create a new ID for each output file.
