__ps2ascii__ uses gs(1) to extract ASCII text from |

26 |
__!PostScript__(tm) or Adobe __Portable Document |

27 |
Format__ (PDF) files. If no files are specified on the |
| |
|
28 |
command line, __gs__ reads from standard input; but PDF |
| |
|
29 |
input must come from an explicitly-named file, not standard |
| |
|
30 |
input. If no output file is specified, the ASCII text is |
| |
|
31 |
written to standard output. |
| |

__ps2ascii__ doesn't look at font encoding, and isn't |

35 |
very good at dealing with kerning, so for !PostScript (but |
| 1 |
perry |
36 |
not currently PDF), you might consider __pstotext__ (see |

below). |
