On a perhaps related subject, I was wondering if there
was a preferred way to convert PDF map files to georeferenced
GeoTiffs? I have thousands (many thousands) of these to
convert.
The tools I would like to use in order of preference are:
Perl
QGIS
Any open source software
Global Mapper
I am on Win7.
Here is an example of a file I want to convert:

I am also not adverse to downloading the entire country (USA)
of GeoTiff 15 minute topos if they exist somewhere, but I have
not found a location that serves them up for free.

Hi Jukka,
I have Global Mapper, and used it to do a batch convert to geotiff on a test
set of images. The converted files work fine with the OpenJPEG drive, but the
size almost doubles and on my 10 year old pc at home it takes about 3 minutes
per file to convert. I will look at all the options you mentioned below.
Thanks!
James
