GET FlashViewer/GetActualPageCount?fileName={EncodedViewingSessionId}

Gets the actual page count.

The actual page count API returns a pages=<page count> in the response. The actual page count is the definitive page count but may be slow to retrieve. Depending on whether the application is using the Prizm Services service or not, the filename will need an encoded session Id or just the document file name. If Prizm Services is being used, encode the viewing session Id with CommonCode.Encoder.EncodeURLString(vewingSessionId).
