I need to separate layers in PDF files (created in adobe illustrator) into different files - pdf or raster - via the command line.
You can try our open source CaLi2CoPi library (PostScript code), online via Ghostscript, to separate in PDF layers different graphic elements (vectors, XObjects, inLine images, text, shading patterns and FormXObjects), upload a PDF file e voilà... http://www.l·l.cat/femfum/CaLi2CoPi_10/ ...this is one of several specialized flags that performs jobs inside PDF files. Here you have the project in SF... http://femfumcali2copi.sourceforge.net/ Ciao, -- Marc Antoni Malagarriga-Picas (34) 938721642 | (34) 667517069 (·][ www.femfum.com PostScript&PDF Tool Developers Desenvolupadors d'Eines PostScript i PDF
