Thank you.  I should have known that, but I
didn't.

Subject: [mapserver-users] Converting PDF files to GeoTiff


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:
http://www.mflan.com/temp/ny_west point_140214_1941_62500_geo.pdf

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
