pdftopng

Convert a pdf image into a png of a configurable resolution.

Installation

Clone the repository, change the permission of the executable (chmod 755 pdftopng) and enjoy.

Make sure you have the directory of the cloned repository in your PATH if you don't want to specify the path of the executable each time you use it. One way to do it is adding to your shell initialization file a line of the type

export PATH="/your/cloned/repository:$PATH" # for sh-like  shells
setenv PATH "/your/cloned/repository:$PATH" # for csh-like shells

Dependencies

The program depends on the utils convert and pdftoppm, which are found on most common GNU/Linux distributions. For instance, on Debian they are respectively in the imagemagick and poppler-utils packages.

TODO

Improve the following:

  • documentation
  • verbosity/debugging options
