NAME

       deillustrate - Remove Adobe Illustrator metadata from a PDF file

SYNOPSIS

        deillustrate [options] infile.pdf [outfile.pdf]\n";

        Options:
          -o --order          preserve the internal PDF ordering for output
          -v --verbose        print diagnostic messages
          -h --help           verbose help message
          -V --version        print CAM::PDF version

DESCRIPTION

       Adobe Illustrator has a very handy feature that allows an author to embed special metadata
       in a PDF that allows Illustrator to reopen the file fully editable.  However, this extra
       data does increase the size of the PDF unnecessarily if no further editing is expected, as
       is the case for most PDFs that will be distributed on the web.  Depending on the PDF, this
       can dramatically reduce the file size.

       This program uses a few heuristics to find and delete the Illustrator-specific data.  This
       program also removes embedded thumbnail representations of the PDF for further byte
       savings.
