Examples & Results

Argus comes with a variety of example configurations covering most of the capabilities of the software. Useful in their own right they also serve as a convenient starting point for creating your own configurations.

Argus Image Extraction Sample Configurations

Argus Raster EPS Image Extraction Sample Configuration

Config File

  • imageConfigs/rasterEPS.cfg
    Extracts images from the PDF and saves each image as an individual Photoshop-compatible raster EPS file. This configuration will maintain the best possible image quality; no colour space conversion, scaling or sub-sampling is done. Any clippaths in the images is also maintained in the output. Vector graphics are not included in the output.
    It should be noted that Argus currently does no compression on the output image data for this output format. This capability should be added in a future release - please contact Iceni if you would like more information.

Command Line

  • argus -c imageConfigs/rasterEPS.cfg grips.pdf

Sample Data

  • Input file grips.pdf
  • Output files
    Note: the sample output files were too large to include in this documentation. After Argus output the files they were subsampled to 72dpi and maximum JPEG compression was used. This means they are not very representative of the true Argus output. They do include clippath information though.
    grips02-00.eps
    grips02-01.eps
    grips02-02.eps
