NAME
show-pdf-tags - show the internal Structure Tree of a tagged PDF file
SYNOPSIS
show-pdf-tags [<options>] <PDF-File>
DESCRIPTION
The show-pdf-tags script shows the internal Structure Tree of a tagged
PDF File.
The structure may be shown using an indented tree display using Unicode
line characters, or as XML, or (primarily for debugging) as a
linearisation of the Lua table structure obtained from the PDF file.
The XML display will use element names matching the names of the
structure elements unless the --map option is used, in which case the
standard PDF Structure element names will be used, as specified in the
role mapping in the file.
It accepts a single PDF File and outputs to the standard output stream.
Valid <options> are:
--help|-h Prints this message and exits
--ignore-case Ignore case when sorting directory listing
--tree (default) Show as tree
--xml Show as XML
--table Show Lua table structure
--map Follow role mapping (xml printer)
--xmp Include XMP XML (xml printer)
--w3c- Add - to w3c namespaces to force browser display
