I’m looking to programmatically convert SVG to PDF documents on a server. What are my options for doing that on Windows?
I’ve seen links to Inkscape, Batik, and svg2pdf, but I’m not sure if these can easily be automated to perform the conversion on a Windows server.
There’s an unusual solution here which involves automating OpenOffice Portable on the server: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/office/PortableOpenOffice.aspx
There are two options:
Batik will give you more control. With Inkscape, you can use the command line parameters (–export-pdf IIRC) to do the conversion without firing up the UI.
