Add support for single operation PDF->Images->PDF

Open pjamar opened this issue 1 year ago • 8 comments

This is an operation that is useful when signing PDFs digitally, with a signature as an image or not, so they're more difficult to edit. In these cases you do not want the other party signing a different or tweaked document.

So, for clarity, the app would:

  1. Accept a PDF as input
  2. Accept parameters to the PDF->Image conversion (image type, color, dpi)
  3. When executed it will convert the PDF to images and back to a PDF.
  4. Send this new PDF to the user (as a download).

Thanks!

What would the name of this function be?

That is a bit difficult... How about PDF scramble? In a way is makes the contents difficult to copy and paste the contentas individually? Or something related to avoiding being tampered with? Like create anti-tampering PDF? Or something fictitious like "Imagerize PDF"..

How about one of these

Copy proof pdf creater Image only pdf creater Non editable pdf creater

Maybe simplest would be Make un-selectable pdf?

Can we compromise on "Create uneditable PDF"? But you decide :)

This is exactly what I am looking for :D

I tried to set it up via a pipeline, but it wouldn't work. I don't think it necessarily needs a name if it could be a default pipeline option.

Otherwise, I would call it "Force Flatten", "Static", or something like that.

Codes done just waiting for release
