NAME

pdftoppm - Portable Document Format (PDF) to Portable Pixmap (PPM) converter (version 3.03)  

SYNOPSIS

pdftoppm [options] PDF-file PPM-root  

DESCRIPTION

Pdftoppm converts Portable Document Format (PDF) files to color image files in Portable Pixmap (PPM) format, grayscale image files in Portable Graymap (PGM) format, or monochrome image files in Portable Bitmap (PBM) format.

Pdftoppm reads the PDF file, PDF-file, and writes one PPM file for each page, PPM-root-number.ppm, where number is the page number.  

OPTIONS

-f number
Specifies the first page to convert.
-l number
Specifies the last page to convert.
-o
Generates only the odd numbered pages.
-e
Generates only the even numbered pages.
-singlefile
Writes only the first page and does not add digits.
-r number
Specifies the X and Y resolution, in DPI. The default is 150 DPI.
-rx number
Specifies the X resolution, in DPI. The default is 150 DPI.
-ry number
Specifies the Y resolution, in DPI. The default is 150 DPI.
-scale-to number
Scales the long side of each page (width for landscape pages, height for portrait pages) to fit in scale-to pixels. The size of the short side will be determined by the aspect ratio of the page.
-scale-to-x number
Scales each page horizontally to fit in scale-to-x pixels. If scale-to-y is set to -1, the vertical size will determined by the aspect ratio of the page.
-scale-to-y number
Scales each page vertically to fit in scale-to-y pixels. If scale-to-x is set to -1, the horizontal size will determined by the aspect ratio of the page.
-x number
Specifies the x-coordinate of the crop area top left corner
-y number
Specifies the y-coordinate of the crop area top left corner
-W number
Specifies the width of crop area in pixels (default is 0)
-H number
Specifies the height of crop area in pixels (default is 0)
-sz number
Specifies the size of crop square in pixels (sets W and H)

"solid":
adjust lines with a width less than one pixel to pixel boundary and paint it with a width of one pixel.

-aa yes | no
Enable or disable font anti-aliasing. This defaults to "yes".
-aaVector yes | no
Enable or disable vector anti-aliasing. This defaults to "yes".
-opw password
