Package: pstotext Priority: optional Section: text Installed-Size: 110 Maintainer: J.H.M. Dassen (Ray) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Architecture: i386 Version: 1.9-1 Depends: gs | gs-aladdin (>= 3.51), libc6 (>= 2.3.2.ds1-4) Filename: pool/main/p/pstotext/pstotext_1.9-1_i386.deb Size: 32294 MD5sum: a159e4b756759beeae003700d31487d1 Description: Extract text from PostScript and PDF files pstotext extracts text (in the ISO 8859-1 character set) from a PostScript or PDF (Portable Document Format) file. Thus, pstotext is similar to the ps2ascii program that comes with ghostscript. The output of pstotext is however better than that of ps2ascii, because pstotext deals better with punctuation and ligatures. So, you can pipe the output to some shellscript, with sed or gawk in the background to process the text. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
