💖 NAME 💖

fix-qdf — repair PDF files in QDF form after editing. This is the fix-qdf page from User Commands, section 1, bestie, and it belongs to the qpdf package. ✨

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

fix-qdf [infilename [outfilename]]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so the fix-qdf program is part of the qpdf package. 🫶 With no arguments, fix-qdf reads from standard input and writes to standard output. With one argument, it reads from that file and writes to standard output.

The fix-qdf program reads a PDF file in QDF form and writes out the same file with stream lengths, cross-reference table entries, and object stream offset tables regenerated. 💅✨

For details about fix-qdf and about PDF files in QDF mode, please see the qpdf manual, which can be found at https://qpdf.readthedocs.io. 👑
