I need to extract all the images from a PDF file on my server. I don't want the PDF pages, only the images at their original size and resolution. How could I do this with Perl, PHP or any other UNIX based app (which I would invoke with the exec function from PHP)? ...
Are there any free libraries that would "print" to a PDF without actually having to install a PDF printer on the system. I want something that can be completely self contained in my application. The reason I say I want it to "print" is that I've tried and tried to find a solution for directly converting from HTML with CSS to PDF, but i...
We're developing software for both Linux and Windows that requires CVS files to be generated into PDF reports. I've written a program in C to turn the CVS files into HTML files (td, tr etc.) and am then converting the HTML into PS using html2ps and then ps2pdf under Linux. However as mentioned above we're also developing for Windows an...

Is there a way, in Linux, Windows, or preferably Mac OS X to take a bunch of PDF files and "chain them" into one "booklet" without owning Acrobat and preferably without doing this manually? I have TexShop, MikTex and the like installed, if any of their utilities help. ...
I am looking to convert any format to/from HTML. I'd like to support DOC, DOCX, PDF, ODT, RDF, DocBook, and TXT. I have found lots of format-to-format conversion utilities, but for convenience of implementation, a single tool is best. This will also make it easier to add new formats as the vendor or open-source project expands the lib...
Is there a test suite for PDFs, preferably in Perl? What I want is some function to test positioning and existence of some text (and if possible a name of a grapic) in a PDF file. Is this theoritically possible with PDF markup? Thank you for your help. ...
We have a requirement to generate PDF documents using information from a PDA / Mobile Phone. We cannot send the information back to a server as the information is required immediately and the engineers with the devices may be out of coverage. So, can anybody recommend a .NET compact framework component for producing PDFs? Could you als...

Hey there What I need to do is convert Microsoft Word .doc files to PDFs or images. This has to occur in Java. I have done a fair bit of investigation already. I've tried Davisor Publishor but it doesn't give me the accuracy that I need - for instance text overlapping in the output document. Adobe has something called LiveCycle. Anyon...
What's the best way of converting PDF docs to Microsoft Word format in PHP? This can be either as a PHP script or calling a (Linux) executable (with proc_open()). It just needs to be relatively fast and produce quality Word documents (in 97/2000/2003 format). Commercial software is OK. ...

Is there any way to generate PDF files from classic ASP? I have a bunch of user-entered data that needs to be turned into a PDF that the user can download. How can I do this? OpenOffice allows exporting documents to PDF, so could this somehow be leveraged? ...
I have a PDF file where every page is a (LZW) TIFF file. I know this because I created it. I want to be able to load it and save it as a bunch of TIFF files. I can open the PDF file with CGPDFDocumentCreateWithURL, and get a page. I can even draw the page onto the screen. What I WANT to do is draw the page into a bitmapContext, so that...
I've seen a few apps load up pdf files as the documentation but at a certain point within the pdf file. How were they doing this? ...
I need to be able to view an embedded pdf in an ASP.Net form as well as print and save the document back to the web server. The pdf document allows filling out of various fields and I also need to have a Print and Save button that's on the form that's not in the pdf default viewer. So the scenario is the user opens a pdf document in an ...
Is there any way to decrypting a pdf protected by an aes-256 bit key? I have the correct password and I need a command-line tool (or library - perhaps in python :P ) for decrypting the file and then doing some operation over it. The best thing could be if the file could be saved decrypted, then I elaborate it and then I can remove it.....
I get a .pdf complete with images, fancy fonts, styles, gradients and what have you. Basically it's handed off to me with the message, "Make me a web page that looks exactly like this." I've tried a few pdf to html tools and they all look terrible. I figure I've only got 2 options and i hate them both. convert the pdf to one big ima...
I'd like to dynamically generate content and then render to a PDF file. This processing would take place on a remote hosting server so using virtual printers etc is out. Does any have a recommendation for a .NET library (pref C#) that would work? I know that I could generate a bunch of PS code and package it myself but I'd prefer somet...
