The paper library and accompanying files are intended to provide a simple way for applications to take actions based on a system- or user-specified paper size. This release is quite minimal, its purpose being to provide really basic functions (obtaining the system paper name and getting the height and width of a given kind of paper) that applications can immediately integrate. A more complete library, using a capabilities file for papers (giving, in addition to the size, informations like paper weigth, color, etc) will be released later. See the sources for paperconf(1) in src/paper.c for how to use the library. Copyright (C) Yves Arrouye <yves@debian.org>, 1996 Adrian Bunk <bunk@fs.tum.de> , 2000

If PDF is electronic paper, then pdftk is an electronic staple-remover, hole-punch, binder, secret-decoder-ring, and X-Ray-glasses. Pdftk is a simple tool for doing everyday things with PDF documents. Keep one in the top drawer of your desktop and use it to: Merge PDF Documents Split PDF Pages into a New Document Decrypt Input as Necessary (Password Required) Encrypt Output as Desired Burst a PDF Document into Single Pages Report on PDF Metrics, including Metadata and Bookmarks Uncompress and Re-Compress Page Streams Repair Corrupted PDF (Where Possible) Pdftk is also an example of how to use a library of Java classes in a stand-alone C++ program. Specifically, it demonstrates how GCJ and CNI allow C++ code to use iText's (itext-paulo) Java classes.

Foomatic is a database-driven system for integrating free software printer drivers with common spoolers under Unix. It supports CUPS, LPRng, LPD, GNUlpr, Solaris LP, PPR, PDQ, CPS, and direct printing with every free software printer driver known to us and every printer known to work with these drivers.

ps2eps is a tool (written in Perl) to produce Encapsulated PostScript Files (EPS/EPSF) from usual one-paged Postscript documents. It calculates correct Bounding Boxes for those EPS files and filters some special postscript command sequences that can produce erroneous results on printers.

pstotext extracts ASCII text from PostScript and PDF files. It uses Ghostscript, but does a more careful job with kerned characters and nonstandard font encodings than Ghostscript's ps2ascii utility.

rtf2latex2e is a program that translates RTF (rich text format) files into LaTeX files. It translates text formatting, tables, figures, and equations. The resulting LaTeX files are quite readable and suitable for editing.
