NAME

       pdf2baresvg - PDF to bare SVG convertor

SYNOPSIS

       pdf2baresvg pdffile svgfile [page number]

DESCRIPTION

       pdf2baresvg launches the command pdf2svg and simplifies its output.

       pdf2svg  is  a  tiny command-line utility using Cairo and Poppler to convert PDF documents
       into SVG files.  Its ouput is a standalone SVG file which comes with an XML header.

       In some cases, the XML header is not useful; for instance when one wants to embed the  SVG
       output as an element in some HTML page.

OPTIONS

       [some page label]
              The  third  parameter  is  optional  and  serves as a page selector.  If omitted it
              defaults to the first page of the passed PDF.  If passed it must be  a  valid  page
              label (typically it is a value such as “iii” or “3”).

       all    This  special  selector  causes  the  program to iterate over all pages in the PDF.
              Because it cannot save multiple pages into one single SVG the second  parameter  is
              expected to contain a sensible file specification: pdf2baresvg document.pdf output-
              page%d.svg all This selector is not encouraged for use with pdf2baresvg  since  the
              XML header will not be removed from output files.

       -h or --help
              Show this message and exit.
