The live back-and-forth is the main point of what I'm asking for — I tried your cpdf (thanks for the mention; will add it to my list) and it too doesn't help; all it does is, somewhere 9000-odd lines into the JSON file, turn the part of the content stream corresponding to what I mentioned in the earlier comment into: [
[ { "F": 0.0 }, "g" ],
[ { "F": 0.0 }, "G" ],
[ { "F": 0.0 }, "g" ],
[ { "F": 0.0 }, "G" ],
[ "BT" ],
[ "/F19", { "F": 10.9091 }, "Tf" ],
[ { "F": 88.93600000000001 }, { "F": 709.0410000000001 }, "Td" ],

This is just a more verbose restatement of what's in the PDF file; the real questions I'm asking are:- How can a user get to this part, from viewing the PDF file? (Note that the PDF page objects are not necessarily a flat list; they are often nested at different levels of “kids”.) - How can a user understand these instructions, and “see” how they correspond to what is visually displayed on the PDF file? |
