Is there a tool to translate from PDF to PNG or GIF or PS ? The reason is taht I'd like to incorporate some pages from a PDF file into a StarOffice document. Thank you.
Acrobat reader (acroread) will print postscript output to a file, then import the .ps
Similarly gimp. Gimp also offers the possibility of cropping parts of the imported pages. You should also can adjust gimp's settings to get whatever quality you desire. Actually gimp uses ghostscript internally to render the PDF as bitmaps and ghostscript itself can create varios image file formats and interpret PostScript. So maybe it's worthwhile checking the gs options to see what they can do. -- JDL
