pstoedit

Rust bindings to pstoedit.

This crate contains Rust bindings to pstoedit, a C++ program that can translate PostScript and PDF graphics into other vector formats.

Features

The API is similar to the C API of pstoedit. Information on drivers can be inquired and arbitrary commands to pstoedit can be constructed and run.

Optional Cargo features:

• smallvec: potentially reduce the number of allocations using the smallvec crate.

Examples

use pstoedit::{DriverInfo, Command};

pstoedit::init()?;

// For every driver ...
for driver in &DriverInfo::get()? {
    let format = driver.symbolic_name()?;
    let extension = driver.extension()?;
    let output_name = format!("output-{}.{}", format, extension);

    // ... convert input.ps to that format
    Command::new().args_slice(&["-f", format, "input.ps"])?.arg(output_name)?.run()?;
}

Requirements

Only dynamic linking to pstoedit is supported, so pstoedit needs to be installed. The supported DLL version is 301, which is compatible with pstoedit version 3.17 and higher.
