The PCI Utilities are a collection of programs for inspecting and manipulating configuration of PCI devices, all based on a common portable library libpci which offers access to the PCI configuration space on a variety of operating systems. This includes the lspci and setpci commands.

hwdata contains various hardware identification and configuration data, such as the pci.ids and usb.ids databases. Each database is contained in a specific package output, such as the pci output for pci.ids, the usb output for usb.ids, etc.

The PCRE library is a set of functions that implement regular expression pattern matching using the same syntax and semantics as Perl 5. PCRE has its own native API, as well as a set of wrapper functions that correspond to the POSIX regular expression API.

PoDoFo is a C++ library and set of command-line tools to work with the PDF file format. It can parse PDF files and load them into memory, and makes it easy to modify them and write the changes to disk. It is primarily useful for applications that wish to do lower level manipulation of PDF, such as extracting content or merging files.

diffpdf lets you compare PDF files, offering three comparison modes: words, characters, and appearance.

This package provides a tool for doing everyday things with PDF documents. It can:

• Merge PDF documents or collate PDF page scans

• Split PDF pages into a new document

• Rotate PDF documents or pages

• Decrypt input as necessary (password required)

• Encrypt output as desired

• Fill PDF forms with X/FDF data and/or flatten forms

• Generate FDF data stencils from PDF forms

• Apply a background watermark or a foreground stamp

• Report PDF metrics, bookmarks and metadata

• Add/Update PDF bookmarks or metadata

• Attach files to PDF pages or the PDF document

• Unpack PDF attachments

• Burst a PDF document into single pages

• Uncompress and re-compress page streams

• Repair corrupted PDF (where possible)

Poppler is a PDF rendering library based on the xpdf-3.0 code base. Poppler gives access to the following binary programs:

• pdfattach

• pdfdetach

• pdffonts

• pdfimages

• pdfinfo

• pdfseparate

• pdfsig

• pdftocairo

• pdftohtml

• pdftoppm

• pdftops

• pdftotext

• pdfunite

A4PDF is a low-level library for generating PDF files. It does not have a document model and instead uses PDF primitives directly. It uses LittleCMS for color management but otherwise does not convert data in any way.

img2pdf converts images to PDF via direct JPEG inclusion. That conversion is lossless: the image embedded in the PDF has the exact same color information for every pixel as the input.

WeasyPrint helps web developers to create PDF documents. It turns simple HTML pages into gorgeous statistical reports, invoices, tickets, etc.

From a technical point of view, WeasyPrint is a visual rendering engine for HTML and CSS that can export to PDF and PNG. It aims to support web standards for printing.

It is based on various libraries but not on a full rendering engine like WebKit or Gecko. The CSS layout engine is written in Python, designed for pagination, and meant to be easy to hack on. Weasyprint can also be used as a python library.

fbida contains a few applications for viewing and editing images on the framebuffer.

flyer-composer can be used to prepare one- or two-sided flyers for printing on one sheet of paper.

Imagine you have designed a flyer in A6 format and want to print it using your A4 printer. Of course, you want to print four flyers on each sheet. This is where Flyer Composer steps in, creating a PDF which holds your flyer four times. If you have a second page, Flyer Composer can arrange it the same way - even if the second page is in a separate PDF file.

This package contains only the command line tool. If you like to use the gui, please install the flyer-composer-gui package.

unpaper is a post-processing tool for scanned sheets of paper, especially for book pages that have been scanned from previously created photocopies.

Its main purpose is to make scanned book pages better readable on screen after conversion to PDF. Additionally, unpaper might be useful to enhance the quality of scanned pages before performing OCR.

Pdfgrep searches in pdf files for strings matching a regular expression. Support some GNU grep options as file name output, page number output, optional case insensitivity, count occurrences, color highlights and search in multiple files.

The zathura-cb plugin adds comic book support to zathura using libarchive.

PyPDF2 is a pure Python PDF library capable of:

1. extracting document information (title, author, …)

2. splitting documents page by page

3. merging documents page by page

4. cropping pages

5. merging multiple pages into a single page

6. encrypting and decrypting PDF files

By being pure Python, it should run on any Python platform without any dependencies on external libraries. It can also work entirely on StringIO objects rather than file streams, allowing for PDF manipulation in memory. It is therefore a useful tool for websites that manage or manipulate PDFs.

Stapler is a pure Python alternative to PDFtk, a tool for manipulating PDF documents from the command line. It supports

• cherry-picking pages and concatenating them into a new file

• splitting a PDF document into single pages each in its own file

• merging PDF documents with their pages interleaved

• displaying metadata in a PDF document

• displaying the mapping between logical and physical page numbers

The zathura-djvu plugin adds DjVu support to zathura using the DjVuLibre library.

The zathura-pdf-poppler plugin adds PDF support to zathura by using the poppler rendering engine.

This is the ReportLab PDF Toolkit. It allows rapid creation of rich PDF documents, and also creation of charts in a variety of bitmap and vector formats.

pdfposter can be used to create a large poster by building it from multiple pages and/or printing it on large media. It expects as input a PDF file, normally printing on a single page. The output is again a PDF file, maybe containing multiple pages together building the poster. The input page will be scaled to obtain the desired size.

This is much like poster does for Postscript files, but working with PDF. Since sometimes poster does not like your files converted from PDF. Indeed pdfposter was inspired by poster.

This package provides optional encoding files for Poppler. When present, Poppler is able to correctly render CJK and Cyrillic text.
