PDF2IMG

Datalogics PDF2IMG is a conversion utility that allows you to transform pages in a PDF or XPS document into graphics image files like BMP, GIF or JPEG. You can also use PDF as one of the export formats. That means that you could take a 15-page PDF document and use PDF2IMG to turn it into 15 separate PDF documents, one PDF for each page in the original file. Or you could convert that 15-page PDF into a series of 15 different PNG files.

This product was created using the Adobe PDF Library, a Software Development Kit (SDK) based on Adobe Acrobat technology. The Adobe PDF Library is available from Datalogics.

PDF2IMG Pro also includes a set of APIs allowing you to integrate this software into custom C++, C#, .NET or Visual Basic applications.

For generating graphics files from PDF documents, PDF2IMG Pro provides advanced color and output options. If you work in graphic arts or prepress, or generally need a broad range of color support for generating and printing content, PDF2IMG Pro is designed for you.

PDF2IMG Features

These features are provided with both versions of the PDF2IMG software:

  1. PDF2IMG.exe. This executable is a command line program.
  2. Resources. The PDF2IMG software release package includes a set of fallback fonts and CMap files. The product uses these resources when needed fonts are not embedded in a source PDF document that is to be converted and cannot be found in the system resource folders.
  3. PDF2IMGLIB. This is the primary library component (DLL on Windows or SO on Linux) that converts PDF document pages to image files. Individual APIs are described in the Appendix. PDF2IMGLIB uses the underlying Adobe PDF Library SDK.
  4. PDF2IMG.vcproj. This is the Microsoft Visual Studio project file with source code for building, running, and updating the PDF2IMG.exe to do your own additional development work. The command line arguments are described in Running the PDF2IMG Software.

The PDF2IMG COM interface is offered with PDF2IMG Premium only. This component performs the same conversion task and options as the command line program using a COM object. The PDF2IMG COM user interface can be used within a C# or VB application and is only available on Windows 32.
