Attempt to extract SVGs #26

Open manuGil opened 1 year ago

manuGil commented 1 year ago

PDF miner has no native type for handling SVG elements. Instead, SVG elements in a document are collected using types like LTCurve, LTLine, LTBox, etc. Extracting these type of elements and convert them into SVG files might not be possible.

This is an alternative using Inkspcape and Python, but it probably cannot distinguish between vectors and images: https://gist.github.com/vitchyr/4894861de3fa8d4ffcba
