Description
PStoEdit
PStoEdit is a command-line application made to facilitate file type conversion from PostScript and PDF graphics to other vector formats. If you work with graphics a lot, this could save you a ton of time!
Supported Formats
This software supports a variety of formats including PDF, gnuplot, LWO (LightWave 3D), RIB (RenderMan), RPL (Real3D), TCL/TK, HPGL, MetaPost (great for TeX/LaTeX users), Kontour, GNU metafile, Skencil, Mathematica, and more. That's quite a list!
Quick Installation
Installing PStoEdit doesn’t take long at all. You can even choose which components you want to install and skip the ones you don’t need. This flexibility is pretty neat!
What’s Included?
The package comes with .h and .lib files for using pstoedit.dll
in other programs. Plus, it includes PostScript examples and plugins for SVG, MIF, EMF, and CGM formats. There’s also an importps feature that helps with MS Office integration—how cool is that? If you've got GraphicsMagick installed on your PC, there’s even a plugin for that!
User-Friendly Commands
PStoEdit keeps things simple when it comes to converting file types. You just point out your source file along with where you want the output to go and what format you want it in. Easy peasy! There aren't any fancy options here; it's straightforward.
Performance & Stability
This tool won't slow down your computer because it runs efficiently on low CPU and RAM usage. Plus, during our tests, we didn't run into any stability issues—it didn’t crash or throw up error messages at all.
Final Thoughts
If you're looking for a reliable way to convert PostScript and PDF graphics into other vector formats without needing a graphical interface, PStoEdit is worth checking out! It’s perfect for those who prefer console applications over more complex GUIs.
