Re: [svg-developers] PDF to SVG

2006-09-28 Thread Stéphane ANCELOT
Hi,
I think the adapted way to do this is using XSL technology, you will 
need PDF to xml conversion and then xml to SVG (I know : svg is already 
xml format!) or any other format.

But One step backward, PDF has been developped by adobe, adobe "was" 
engaged in svg (past svg ie plugin...) , I suppose they already can 
propose  tools to convert directly PDF to SVG and I suppose it rocks too !.

I found XPAAJ XML/PDF Access Api for java
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/livecycle/downloads/xpaaj.html




Best Regards
Steph

Can you give us some idea of which tools you tried, and what their "pain
points" were?


Are there any open source projects focused on PS or PDF to SVG

the only one that I know of is pstoedit (http://www.pstoedit.net/).

Not that I know specifically, but if you can paint PDF to a Graphics2D
object, you can use Batik’s SVGGraphics2D class to generate SVG from the
drawing commands.

[svg-developers] PDF to SVG

2006-09-27 Thread vic_snap
Hello group:

We have a project where we are leveraging SVG and Batik heavily.  One 
of the key areas of interest for us lies in the conversion of PDF to 
SVG.  We are aware of several commercial tools on the market for this 
conversion, but we have not had satisfactory results from them as of 
yet.  

Are there any open source projects focused on PS or PDF to SVG 
conversions that anyone is aware of?  We are willing to contribute 
and/or donate to further the project.  

Thanks
