    QPDF: A content-preserving PDF document transformer

  • I cannot recommend qpdf [1] enough if you want to play around with PDFs.

    Aside from being an excellent pdf manipulation library it also has a mode where it outputs a version of the pdf that is much easier to manipulate with a text editor and then lets you build a new pdf from that.

    Shout out to Jay who has been steadily working on it for many many years. He is the most kind, undestanding and hard working free software developer I've had the pleasure to cross paths with. Thanks for all your hard work Jay!

  • dxd-file-format

    Necessary data for reverse-engineering DXD file format

  • Hey, thank you for replying to this old thread. I got sometimes to scan some fake models to eliminate any legal reasons for publishing real patients data on the Internet.

    I published all data in this Github repo: https://github.com/thangngoc89/dxd-file-format

    I also tried to scan something simple like an sphere or a pencil without any success. The software only recognize tooth-like structures.

    Luciky, it can exports to STL files with 100% triangles that can be imported to others dental CAD software so I hope it would help with the progress.
