Shoebox 0.1 (Default branch)
Shoebox is a pure Python version/rewrite of Nodebox. It can read scripts in the Nodebox language and output images in SVG, PostScript, PDF or PNG format using the Cairo rendering engine. Comparing to graphics coding alternatives like Nodebox and Processing, Shoebox is lighter and more flexible thanks to not depending on an interface engine for rendering, thus making it potentially suitable for CPU-conscious uses like server applications. Unlike Processing and Nodebox though, Shoebox can only output still images for the time being. It can be run stand-alone on a shell or as part of a Python program.Image

PDF2SVG(1)						      General Commands Manual							PDF2SVG(1)

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.
