Convert PDF's to Images

[Ralph DiMola]

Ray,

I talked to Mark about PDFs and LC @rr14. The Foxit PDF library has been
chosen by Google and is open source. RR plans to make the API available
cross-platform(including mobile). I don't know the implementation schedule.

>From Foxit Web Page:
FoxitR Corporation, a leading provider of solutions for reading, editing,
creating, organizing, and securing PDF documents, today announced that Foxit
PDF technology has been chosen as the open-source PDF rendering engine in
the Google's open-source PDFium Project.

Subject: Convert PDF's to Images

Greetings List,

About a year ago I solicited suggestions for a command line tool, Mac and
Windows, I could license which would return the number of pages in a PDF as
well as convert it to images at various resolutions.

Unfortunately I still haven't found an ideal solution so I thought I'd ask
if anybody has experience or suggestions with the inner-workings of PDF
files so I could consider writing my own converter, maybe as a plugin, for a
Livecode standalone.  OF course it would be great to write it in Livecode.

Thoughts?

Thanks!
