1 The command line tools are all gathered into one umbrella command: `mutool`.
3 For rendering and converting documents there are three commands available:
5 * `mutool draw`: This is the more customizable tool, but also has a more
6 difficult set of command line options. It is primarily used for rendering
7 a document to image files.
8 * `mutool convert`: This tool is used for converting documents into other
9 formats, and is easier to use.
10 * `mutool trace`: This is a debugging tool used for printing a trace of the
11 graphics device calls on a page.
13 There are also several tools specifically for working with PDF files:
15 * `mutool show`: A tool for displaying the internal objects in a PDF file.
16 * `mutool extract`: Extract images and embedded font resources.
17 * `mutool clean`: Rewrite PDF file. Used to fix broken files, or to make
18 a PDF file human editable.
19 * `mutool merge`: Merge pages from multiple input files into a new PDF.
20 * `mutool create`: Create a new PDF file from a text file with graphics
21 commands.
22 * `mutool portfolio`: Manipulate PDF portfolios.
24 And finally, there is a tool for doing anything you can imagine:
26 * `mutool run`: A tool for running Javascript programs with access to the
27 MuPDF library functions.
