Wanted: tool to get vector graphics out of PDF

by Carl Witthoft <carl@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > May 9, 2008 at 04:57 PM

Hi,
Here's the scenario:  I create a chart using R, which saves it as a PDF 
file.  (all other options are bitmapped formats).   I want to be able to 
get the vectorized version of the chart out of the PDF file so I can 
edit or mod it in other applications.  I can do this using OmniGraffle, 
but was hoping to find a simpler, and cheaper, utility.

Just to help clarify: yes, I can get the graph from the PDF file into 
things like PowerPoint, but only the bitmapped equivalent.  Ditto when 
using the Clipboard to copy the chart/graph directly from R's  Quartz 
window.

Any ideas?
thanks
Carl
