I had my sysadmin install the libpodofo-tools package and when I attempt to extract images from this PDF: http://chiclassiccomp.org/docs/content/computing/LearSiegler/LSI_ADM1-Brochure_1973.pdf
I get a bunch of PPM files, but they don't appear to be correct: shell 142> identify pdfimage_0000.ppm identify: unable to read image data `pdfimage_0000.ppm' @ error/pnm.c/ReadPNMImage/929. ImageMagick's convert command also errors out reading the file: shell 144> convert pdfimage_0000.ppm tmp.png convert: unable to read image data `pdfimage_0000.ppm' @ error/pnm.c/ReadPNMImage/929. convert: no images defined `tmp.png' @ error/convert.c/ConvertImageCommand/3210. ...and pnmtopng also reports an error: pnmtopng pdfimage_0000.ppm > tmp.png pnmtopng: EOF / read error reading a row of pixels Looking at the partial tmp.png I see an image that appears to repeat the original image 3 times from left to right and is about 1/3rd the expected height. Is this a known issue with 0.9.3? shell 150> podofoimgextract --version Usage: podofoimgextract [inputfile] [outputdirectory] PoDoFo Version: "0.9.3" Is it fixed in 0.9.5? I've been looking for a good PDF image extractor that was open source and I had really high hopes for podofo. -- "The Direct3D Graphics Pipeline" free book <http://tinyurl.com/d3d-pipeline> The Terminals Wiki <http://terminals-wiki.org> The Computer Graphics Museum <http://ComputerGraphicsMuseum.org> Legalize Adulthood!
