    Question bitmaps

    Hi there,

    Does anyone out there in that vast couldron of programming knowledge and expertise know how to convert a pdf document into a bitmap ?

    Some suggestions on code would be welcome, although I would imagine that this would be a very complex matter. Some URLs would theefore be most welcome,

    Thanks,

    pdf is FAR more complex than a bmp. There's a lot you would have to learn. I don't know if there is documentation out there for it but it could be hacked if you have the time and brains. I believe there is a great deal of vector information in there. But pdf can contain lots of different entities. good luck
