NAME

       pdf2svg - PDF to SVG convertor

SYNOPSIS

       pdf2svg pdffile svgfile [page number]

DESCRIPTION

       pdf2svg	is a tiny command-line utility using Cairo and Poppler to convert PDF documents into SVG files.  Multi-page PDF can be split up to
       one SVG per page by passing a file naming specification.

       The program does not follow the usual GNU command line syntax.

       The first argument is the source PDF file, the second argument is the filename of the output SVG file (or a specification,  see	below  for
       details).

OPTIONS

       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:

       pdf2svg document.pdf output-page%d.svg all

       The usual format modificators work as well: output-page%02d.svg will give you output-page00.svg, output-page01.svg, etc.
