PTXT is a text-to-PDF converter aiming to:

• fast
• low memory consumption
• stream converting, line by line
• light weight

To reach these goals, PTXT uses an ad-hoc solution instead of depending on a full-feature PDF library or rendering engine.

$ make
$ sudo make install

• ptxt file

  Convert file to PDF. The result is printed to the standard output. If file is omitted, the standard input is used.

• ptxt --help

  Print the usage.

• ptxt --version

  Print version information.

Outputs are in the style of line printers:

• 66 lines per page
• 80 columns
• Courier font
• A4 page size
• proper margins

PTXT was created by DONG Yuxuan in 2023.
