NAME¶

show-pdf-tags

SYNOPSIS¶

show-pdf-tags [<options>] <PDF-File>

DESCRIPTION¶

The show-pdf-tags script shows the internal Structure Tree of a tagged PDF File.

The structure may be shown using an indented tree display using Unicode line characters, or as XML, or (primarily for debugging) as a linearisation of the Lua table structure obtained from the PDF file.

The XML display will use element names mmatching the names of the structure elements unless the --map option is used, in which case the standard PDF Structure element names will be used, as specified in the role maping in the file.

It accepts a single PDF File and outputs to the standard output stream.

Valid <options> are:

--help|-h Prints this message and exits

--ignore-case Ignore case when sorting directory listing

--tree (default) Show as tree

--xml Show as XML

--table Show Lua table structure

--map Follow role mapping (xml printer)

--w3c- Add - to w3c namespaces to force browser display
