history
Project history and usage
libpagemaker is a Document Liberation Project library for importing Aldus/Adobe PageMaker documents, with command-line converters such as pmd2raw, pmd2svg, and pmd2text.
Project history
The Document Liberation Project was created under The Document Foundation in April 2014 to give proprietary document-format import libraries a shared home. libpagemaker fits that mission by preserving access to PageMaker files, a legacy desktop-publishing format that otherwise depends on old commercial software.
The Document Foundation reported libpagemaker 0.0.3 in March 2016 with improved parsing for big-endian Mac files. In January 2018, The Document Liberation Project announced libpagemaker alongside other libraries originally developed for LibreOffice 6.0, describing it as an importer for PageMaker 6 and 7 documents.
Adoption history
libpagemaker's adoption is mostly indirect: it belongs to the DLP family of import libraries used by document tools rather than being an end-user application. The DLP site lists LibreOffice, Calligra, Inkscape, Scribus, AbiWord, and related software among users of its import-library ecosystem.
How it is used
The package is useful for document-conversion workflows that need to extract text, SVG, or raw structure from old PageMaker files. It is also packaging infrastructure for office-suite import filters, where a narrow library can be updated independently of a larger application.
Why package nerds care
libpagemaker is niche but culturally important in package collections: it is the kind of small format-rescue library that keeps old proprietary files recoverable. Its value is less daily command-line use and more making sure a distribution can open documents that would otherwise be stranded.
Timeline
- 2014: The Document Liberation Project was born under The Document Foundation.
- 2016: The Document Foundation reported libpagemaker 0.0.3 with big-endian Mac-file support.
- 2018: The Document Liberation Project announced libpagemaker as a PageMaker 6/7 import library developed for LibreOffice 6.0.
