I had to recreate some PDFs at work that were created by "iText by Lowagie" which must have been a java library at the time.
I redid it with the FPDF library for php, and it worked out fine. I tried some new features of tcpdf, and it wasn't much work to convert.
Using inkscape to make an EPS out of an svg was also challenging.
I know that postscript and PDF is based on a forth stack machine, if I really had to get that low.

- kragen 5y agoPostScript is based on a stack machine, but a different one from Forth. PDF is not, although it sure looks like it. But no, it's just using syntax from PostScript, but without all the dynamicity.
