normalize
Reformat page content streams
Usage
pdftl
<input>normalize[<spec>...]output<output>
Details
The normalize operation formats page
content streams for readability. This results in the content
stream appearing with one PDF content operator per line.
To see the effect of this operation in the PDF file (for
example, to examine a content stream in order to come up
with a regular expression to use in the replace operation)
you should pass the uncompress option to avoid compression
of the page content stream.
The <spec> specification defines the pages on which to
perform this operation. See the help topic [[page_specs]].
Examples
Normalize the content streams for pages 1-3, with uncompressed output
pdftl in.pdf normalize 1-3 output out.pdf uncompress
