NAME
pdftoipe - Convert PDF files into editable Ipe format
SYNOPSIS
pdftoipe { options } PDF file [ XML file ]
DESCRIPTION
pdftoipe converts arbitrary PDF files to Ipe's XML format.
Note that pdftoipe is not related to Ipe's use of the PDF file format. PDF files
generated by Ipe contain an extra stream with Ipe markup information, which is necessary
for Ipe to read the file again. If you wish to convert an Ipe-generated PDF-file to XML
format, you should use ipetoipe -xml! pdftoipe is meant to allow you to take arbitrary
PDF files and make them editable in Ipe.
pdftoipe does a pretty good job on drawings, but doesn't handle text very well. Ipe's
text model is based on LaTeX, which is just very different from the text found in most PDF
files.
-notext
Ignore all text in the PDF file, convert graphics only
-literal
Allow Latex markup in text objects. The default is to escape all characters
special in Latex.
-math Use LaTeX math mode for all text in the PDF file
-merge int
Set the text merge level, an integer between 0 (the default) and 2. It determines
how eagerly pdftoipe tries to combine consecutive text in the PDF document into a
single Ipe text object. At level 0, only characters consecutively rendered in PDF
are combined. At level 1, more text is combined. At level 2, all text is combined
until a path or image is drawn.
-unicode int
Determine what should be done with non-ASCII characters in text. At level 0, all
non-ASCII characters are represented as [U+XXX]. At level 1 (the default), some
often used characters (such as bullets) are replaced by Latex equivalents, others
are represented as [U+XXX]. At level 2, characters that are not replaced by Latex
equivalents are included in UTF-8. At level 3, all characters are included as
UTF-8.
At level 2 and 3, UTF-8 is set as the input encoding in the Latex preamble of the
generated Ipe document.
Note that this only concerns characters for which the PDF file provides a mapping
to Unicode. Characters from embedded fonts without Unicode mapping (such as symbol
fonts) are always represented as [S+XX].
-f int First page to convert
-l int Last page to convert
-opw string
Owner password for encrypted PDF files
-upw string
User password for encrypted PDF files
-q Quiet mode (don't print any messages or errors)
