parsing pdf files
I have a pdf file that I would like to parse into R: http://www.williams.edu/Registrar/geninfo/faculty.pdf For now, I open the file in Acrobat by hand, then save it "as text" and then use readLines(). That works fine but a) I am concerned that some information may be lost and b) I may be doing this a lot, so I would rather have R grab the information from the pdf file directly. So: is

pdftotext latest version for CentOS 7
I have pdftotext 0.26.5, the current version for CentOS 7 and the Mate desktop as far as I can ascertain. The page https://www.xpdfreader.com/pdftotext-man.html seems to suggest that the latest version is 4.02 which seems a gigantic leap ahead. Since I have a Chinese text PDF which I am unable to extract any text from using pdftotext, instead I end up with a collection of garbage Latin

Replacement for Pdftk under CentOS 7 ?
Hi, Two weeks ago I migrated all our local school's servers and clients from Slackware 14.1 to CentOS 7. Everything went perfectly, and now I'm busy sanding down some edges. The previous installation sported pdftk and a frontend (can't remember the name) which allowed some basic operations on PDF files such as splitting and concatenation. The school's staff used this application

Windows PC PostScript printer driver -> CUPS data import fails
Hi all, For some years now I have been using a simple system I found online which allows me to easily import data from Windows Programs. Hopefully others out there are using the system and already have found the answer to my problem. I have installed on my Centos server a virtual CUPS printer which receives a PS file, and then runs 'ps2pdf' and 'pdftotext -layout' to end up

Dealing with image PDF's
Guys, I was just playing around and added a bit of code to omindex.cc so I could ocr tiff and tif with gocr which seems to work.

Getting file name from pdf device?
Hi IU would like to modify the dev.off function, so that it automatically compresses the created pdf. I am thinking of doing the following in the modified dev.off: 1) Get the filename of the pdf device 2) close the device by calling the original dev.off() 3) compress the pdf file with a system call of pdftk. My question: how can I get the filename of the pdf from the device before it is closed?

[newbie] separating plot output from debug output
I'm attempting to refactor an R script that does a lot of plotting, among other things. Ideally I'd like to do something like setup # does pdf(...) for each part of input { plot(process(part)) } cleanup # does dev.off() but have problems: 1 I'm plotting to PDF, so everytime I dev.off() creates a new file, and I want everything in one file (as does my boss :-) 2 I'm
