Fixed the page(s) part, but the rest is hard to fix because file(1) depends on the pdf /Count attribute to print the number of pages; if that is not found then how can file(1) deduce the number of pages?

The abilities of third-party tools for Linux to invariably and correctly report the complete name and number of pages of a PDF document are attested. I could reasonably assume that your tool was developed with such abilities. You feel it hard to do the job; that I dully understand.
