t2p TODO list
$Id: TODO,v 1.9 2003/02/21 01:25:47 eric Exp $
No particular order.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
t2p:
* bookmark format string processing
* bitblt library:
* run length encoding (needed for G4 compression)
* optimize
* replace inner loops in flip_h and flip_v with Duff's Device
* check for endian problems
* crop
* page sizes
* metric
* check page size, if off by too much, generate warning message and
use actual scan size
* multiple page sizes, pick the right one?
* sort out use of float and double types
* range checking
* rotation (0, 90, 180, or 270)
* page number style (D, r, R, a, A)
* watermarking - in image?
* flip, transpose
* support JPEG, PNG, and other input file formats
* generate text, line art - option to embed fonts
* overlay G4 images in different colors - use ImageMask and the fill color
* thresholding of color and grey scale input
* automatic separation using timify code from Tim Shoppa?
* automatic image detection using DCT or FFT
* bilevel thresholding
* downsampling
* ??? split into two tools, one to process TIFF files,
and one to convert a single multipage TIFF into a PDF
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
bitblt routines:
* finish optimized bitblt code
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
PDF routines:
[Page numbers refer to _Portable Document Format Reference Manual_ by
Adobe Systems Incorporated, Addison-Wesley, 1993.]
* G4 fax encoding
* proper output of real numbers - variable precision, no exponent
* bookmarks (outline)
* name trees, number trees
* page labels
* balance pages tree - currently a degenerate single-level tree, but the
PDF spec recommends max. of 6 children per parent
* thumbnails
* PDF Page rotate attribute (p. 53)?
* fix array element ordering
* memory management - need to reference count all structures and free
them as appropriate - not necessary for t2p program
* when an object is written to the file, set a flag to indicate that
it is now immutable
* buffered streams (vs. current callback mechanism for unbuffered streams)
* add support for streams with multiple filters
