    Hi all,

    I'd like to understand whether (and how) it is possible to convert PDF documents to SVG via the command line? I am satisfied with the SVG conversion result achieved on the UI but haven't found a way to convert PDFs in an automated way, I haven't found any option neither on the pdf24-DocTool.exe documentation or by considering the use of profiles.

    Thanks in advance!

    Solved, I was now able to run the conversion via the command line like this:
    C:Program FilesPDF24>"C:Program FilesPDF24jrebinjava.exe" -cp "C:Program FilesPDF24libjar*" -Dwindows.acp=1252 -XX:MaxRAMPercentage=80 "org.pdf24.Converter" "-dpi=300" "-imageQuality=85" "C:temptest.pdf" "C:temptest.svg"

    (as learned via https://help.pdf24.org/de/fragen/frage/qualitaetsunterschied-toolbox-doctool/)

    Hello,

    thank you for sharing your solution. Please note that org.pdf24.Converter is an internal class of PDF24. The call can stop working after an update without notice.

    The supported way:

    1. In the PDF24 Toolbox, the tool "Convert from PDF" offers SVG as output format.
    2. For automation, the Toolbox can process the same job from the command line: pdf24-Toolbox.exe -processJob INPUT_FILE OUTPUT_FILE. When you run "Convert from PDF" with SVG once in the Toolbox, the job file is stored in %TEMP%\PDF24 (extension .json). You can use it as a template. Details: https://creator.pdf24.org/manual/11/#912-process-a-job

    PDF to SVG is also available online: https://tools.pdf24.org/en/pdf-to-svg
