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.
