All,

Is anyone aware of or used a free tool to scan a folder for corrupt PDF files?

We recently stumbled upon a corrupt PDF file in a folder containing
over 1,000 PDF files. We were able to restore in short order by
bringing it in from a backup, but thought it a good idea to check the
rest.

I really don't want to double-click on 1,000 PDF files to see if they
will open. :)

Thanks.
