Then use pdftocairo to convert any pdf page into svg for f in *. You FIRST split this multipage pdf into its single pages (create aįolder for this single pages) pdftk file.pdf burst The best output format for your needs may be the svg, so after converted the pdf page you can open this svg with any svg app (with inkscape or the good old sodipodi for instance), select the vector elements you want extract and save -svg : generate a Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) file.

-eps : generate Encapsulated PostScript (EPS).

Pdftocairo is able to produce, in output, both raster and vector format, between these last, it is able to convert the content of single pdf page (if you have a multipage pdf doc, you first need to explode this in its single pdf pages, with pdftk for instance), into: In my humble opinion, I can suggest the way I use to get vector images from pdf I'm wondering if there's a way to get around this, or is there a better tool in Debian to achieve the same? Thanks. Drag and drop (even with the shift key pressed) does not work. If I use the 'select and transform objects' tool (the black arrow), the whole pdf page is selected while I only want a small portion if I use the 'edit path by nodes' tool (the black triangle arrow with some nodes) I can only select a single object at a time. If you open a JPEG file, the import window will be called jpeg bitmap image import. When opening either a JPEG or PNG file, a new window will open. Locate your folder with your images then select the one you want to convert to a vector. I hope I could use some selector tool to drag a box and select everything inside as I normally did with Illustrator, but none of the tools in Inkscape works. Open Inkscape then go to the File menu at the top and click on Open.

The pdfimage does not meet my needs since I want vector graphics (pdf) rather than jpgs so I prefer to use Inkscape, but it does not work as expected. Two popular solutions I found online are using In windows, Adobe Illustrator works just fine, but I now have to perform this task in a Debian box. I'd like to extract some pdf images from a paper for presentation purposes.
