pdfrw is a Python library and utility that reads and writes PDF files:
|
|
|
|
* Version 0.2 is tested and works on Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.3, and 3.4.
|
|
* Operations include subsetting, merging, rotating, modifying metadata, etc.
|
|
* The fastest pure Python PDF parser available
|
|
* Has been used for years by a printer in pre-press production
|
|
* Can be used with rst2pdf to faithfully reproduce vector images
|
|
* Can be used either standalone, or in conjunction with reportlab to reuse
|
|
existing PDFs in new ones
|
|
* Permissively licensed
|
|
|
|
pdfrw will faithfully reproduce vector formats without rasterization, so the
|
|
rst2pdf package has used pdfrw for PDF and SVG images by default since March
|
|
2010.
|
|
|
|
pdfrw can also be used in conjunction with reportlab, in order to re-use
|
|
portions of existing PDFs in new PDFs created with reportlab.
