PDFBeads is a small utility written in Ruby which takes scanned page images and converts them into a single PDF file. Unlike other PDF creation tools, PDFBeads attempts to implement the approach typically used for DjVu books. Its key feature is separating scanned text (typically black, but indexed images with a small number of colors are also accepted) from halftone pictures. Each type of graphical data is encoded into its own layer with a specific compression method and resolution.

Reads a text file (if supplied as the first argument) and creates a pdf file with the same name but with .pdf as extension in the current directory via the program pdflatex (the only requirement besides ruby itself). If '-h' is the first argument, then the program displays the helptext and exits. The program can also read the input text from STDIN (STanDard IN) and create the pdf file in the user's home directory. When this method is used, no argument is given to the program and the text is simply piped directly into the program like this: $ echo 'Hello' | txt2pdf This would create a pdf file with only 'Hello' and the page number at the bottom of the resulting pdf page. With this, you could map a key binding in your window manager to create a pdf file from the text you selected in any program, be it the terminal, your browser or your text editor. In my wm of choice, i3, I have added the following to my i3 config: bindsym $mod+p exec xclip -o | txt2pdf This would create a pdf file from the text I have selected as I hit the 'Window Button' and 'p'.
