This question is very similar to PDF image in PDF document using ReportLab (Python), but I seem unable to adapt it to my needs:
I want to add vectorized images (available in SVG oder PDF format) to an A4 PDF output. The images must not get scaled! They should simply be placed from top to bottom with some vertical spacing and automatic page breaks.
No text or other content is required. Basically, I'm looking for a pdfnup solution. In the past, I have used pdflatex with a simple input file for the task, but this is no option for the target system.

I have an SVG graphic that I want to put some text on from my PHP variables. The graphic was generated in Illustrator and resizes in my web page to 100% width. Here is a representation of it:
How could this be done for the 8 text items? Does something special need to be done in Illustrator, like creating an anchor point for the text? How do I update the text item? I've done research but haven't been able to find a similar situation.
Thankful for any information that could help me narrow down my search.
Being someone who has never worked with files of .SVG file type before, this was a misunderstanding.
If you design a graphic in Adobe Illustrator, save it as an SVG and edit it with your favorite text editor, you will be able to see the SVG mark-up. It all makes sense now, and here you will be able to change the text at the code-level.
For my application, I saved the SVG as a PHP file and did an include on it, while changing the raw text to PHP variables in said file. This allowed me to pass my dynamic text as variables to the graphic.
I have downloaded a kml file from https://www.genesys-pgr.org/explore/map but I don't have a tool to support it. How can I convert the xml file to pdf or word file?
Converting a KML file to a PDF is not straightforward and the solution really depends on what you want to do with the PDF file. KML or Keyhole Markup Language is simply a collection of geospatial annotations on a map that can be opened in an application that supports that data format. KML itself is a shareable file format that can be emailed from one user to another to share places on the map.
If you just want to view the KML file recommend you download and install Google Earth Pro, which is freely provided by Google. There are other viewers for KML available.
One way to convert KML to PDF is the following steps:
Open the KML file with Google Earth Pro
Change the view on the map to view you want to save in the PDF file. For example, tilt the map and/or zoom on the map.
Next take a screenshot of the Google Earth map or select save image option in the menu to save the map view as a JPEG image.
Insert that JPEG image into a Word document and/or then save it as a PDF file.
I was trying to convert Image PDF to text PDF in Tesseract OCR. In between i need to check for cover page and remove that from the result. Is it possible in Tessaract OCR itself to identify cover page based on specific properties of cover page(cover page text matching). or do i have to take the whole output of tessetact OCR result and provide my logic to scan PDF and remove cover page. I am fully confused and any help will be appreciated.
Theres no way for Tesseract to do that, you should remove the page beforehand, and then hand the PDF image to OCR.
There's a good answer on how to do what i told you at https://stackoverflow.com/a/11541587/9740486
Platform: Linux
Tool: Qrencode (Open source application for creating QR code in linux)
I am using this qrencode application to generate QR code. The output file format that I am using is PNG. But when I try to print the PNG file using dot-matrix printer, it prints correctly but scrolls down whole page i.e. it occupies the whole page, but my requirement is that I should be able to print the image to any point of an page.
Unfortunately I don't have time to go through the entire source code of LIBPNG and QRENCODE.
I strongly recommend to check the man page for lpr
It has an option for positioning the image on the page, e.g. -o position=name.
Check the possible position names in the manual.
Most probably you would need to scale your images.
Be sure that your image is not too large for fitting in the page.
I want to make a responsive website. Part of that is to enhance my graphics. I have a few PNG flat icons that I would like to convert to SVG but I have no knowledge about Illustrator or any other SVG editor. I've tried an online service called vector magic, but the results are not what I need.
What is the best way to convert my images to SVG?
You should try Illustrator to vectorize your images (there is a function to do this). There will never be a perfect result, so you'll have to correct imperfections.
Here is a link that explains how to do this. You'll have then to save your image in "save as" and change the ai filename (for illustrator) to svg.
