Developer Needed

Post by vardog »

ImageMagick looks like the application we need to run in the background to dissect a PDF. However, we would need to hire a ImageMagick developer to recommend the right product, create and install the application.

We have 2-page 12x18 document. Each page has 12 sections that match-up to each other. Page one reads left-to-right, four sections across, three rows down. Page two reads right-to-left, four sections across, three rows down.

Objective: Take section one from page and section one from page two and create new PFD document for that section. This would be repeated for all 12 sections. We also need to know if ImageMagick after dissecting each section has the ability to extract data from the new PDF and name the file accordingly.

This would be a job for hire. If interested or you need additional information please contact me at fdun456@gmail.com.

I am no expert on PDF, but IM is a raster processor, so it will rasterize the sections before converting back to PDF. See http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/formats/#vector. You may be better off with some other vector processing tool. But I will defer to the IM developers and other experts on this.
