To get meta data properties of doc,docx,ppt and pptx like number of pages, number of slides from PHP i followed the following process and it worked liked charm and iam so happy, below is the process i followed , hope it helps someone

Download and configure Apache Tika.

once its done you could try executing the following commadn it will give all the meta data about your file

java -jar tika-app-1.5.jar -m test.docx
java -jar tika-app-1.5.jar -m test.doc
java -jar tika-app-1.5.jar -m test.pptx
java -jar tika-app-1.5.jar -m test.ppt

once tested you can execute this comman in PHP script. Thanks.
