Command line version


PDFtoMusic enables to convert or hear PDF files without using the graphical user interface (GUI).
It is ran through a command line.
This operating mode is especially  intended to be used by visually impaired people, who cannot navigate within the interface.

On Macintosh :
When the program is installed, a p2mp command is created in the Applications folder.
Run the terminal and enter
/Applications/p2mp followed by the complete name of the PDF file to process.

A command called p2mp is available in the program install folder (C:\Program Files\PDFtoMusic ou C:\Program Files\PDFtoMusic Pro).
From an MS/DOS command window, move to this folder then enter
p2mp followed by the complete name of the PDF file to process.
