The Copyright is not an issue, because we have a contract and have rights. The main goal is to automate a process which takes a while and repeat many time. So, using Adobe Illustrator or free Inkscape editor is not option. We have access to the sources (Website), but this is time consuming. Partly, there are web services, which we can use, but not for all tasks. The PDF files are generated automatically by schedule, so this way can be fully automated.
I will try to find a way to convert this PDF to SVG, but most importantly for me is to be able to take some parts of each page, not whole page. Do you know how this can be done? Are there any examples? Thank you.
