PROGRAM:

NAME


ps2ascii - Ghostscript translator from PostScript or PDF to ASCII

SYNOPSIS


ps2ascii [ input.ps [ output.txt ] ]
ps2ascii input.pdf [ output.txt ]

DESCRIPTION


ps2ascii uses gs(1) to extract ASCII text from PostScript(tm) or Adobe Portable Document
Format (PDF) files. If no files are specified on the command line, gs reads from standard
input; but PDF input must come from an explicitly-named file, not standard input. If no
output file is specified, the ASCII text is written to standard output.

ps2ascii doesn't look at font encoding, and isn't very good at dealing with kerning, so
for PostScript (but not currently PDF), you might consider pstotext (see below).

Use ps2ascii online using onworks.net services
