Conversion to text for fulltext search
=======================================

text/plain
text/csv
application/csv
  cat '%s'

application/pdf
  pdftotext -nopgbrk %s - | sed -e 's/ [a-zA-Z0-9.]\{1\} / /g' -e 's/[0-9.]//g'

	If pdftotext takes too long on large document you may want to pass parameter
	-l to specify the last page to be converted

  mutool draw -F txt -q -N -o - %s 

application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document
  docx2txt '%s' -

application/msword
  catdoc %s

application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet
  xlsx2csv -d tab %s

application/vnd.ms-excel
  xls2csv -d tab %s

text/html
  html2text %s

Many office formats
  unoconv -d document -f txt --stdout '%s'

Apache Tika is another option for creating plain text from various document
types. Just use curl to send the document to your tika server and get the
plain text in return.

curl -s -T '%s' http://localhost:9998/tika --header 'Accept: text/plain'

Conversion to pdf for pdf preview
==================================

text/plain
text/csv
application/csv
application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.text
application/msword
application/vnd.wordperfect
text/rtf
  unoconv -d document -f pdf --stdout -v '%f' > '%o'

image/png
image/jpg
image/jpeg
  convert -density 300 '%f' 'pdf:%o'

image/svg+xml
	cairosvg -f pdf -o '%o' '%f'

application/vnd.ms-powerpoint
application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.presentationml.presentation
application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.presentation
  unoconv -d presentation -f pdf --stdout -v '%f' > '%o'

application/vnd.ms-excel
application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet
application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.spreadsheet
  unoconv -d spreadsheet -f pdf --stdout -v '%f' > '%o'

message/rfc822
  java -jar emailconverter-2.5.3-all.jar '%f' -o '%o'

	The emailconverter can be obtained from https://github.com/nickrussler/email-to-pdf-converter
	It requires wkhtmltopdf which is part of debian.

Conversion to png for preview images
=====================================

If you have problems running convert on PDF documents then read this page
https://askubuntu.com/questions/1081895/trouble-with-batch-conversion-of-png-to-pdf-using-convert
It basically instructs you to comment out the line

<policy domain="coder" rights="none" pattern="PDF" />

in /etc/ImageMagick-6/policy.xml

convert determines the format of the converted image from the extension of
the output filename. SeedDMS usually sets a propper extension when running
the command, but nevertheless it is good practice to explicitly set the output
format by prefixing the output filename with 'png:'. This is of course always
needed if the output goes to stdout.

image/jpg
image/jpeg
image/png
  convert -resize %wx '%f' 'png:%o'

image/svg+xml
	cairosvg -f png --output-width %w -o '%o' '%f'

text/plain
  convert -density 100 -resize %wx 'text:%f[0]' 'png:%o'

application/pdf
  gs -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=png16m -dPDFFitPage -r72x72 -sOutputFile=- -dFirstPage=1 -dLastPage=1 -q '%f' | convert -resize %wx png:- '%o'

  convert -density 100 -resize %wx '%f[0]' 'png:%o'

  mutool draw -F png -w %w -q -N -o %o %f 1

application/postscript
  convert -density 100 -resize %wx '%f[0]' 'png:%o'

text/plain
  a2ps -1 -a1 -R -B -o - '%f' | gs -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=png16m -dFirstPage=1 -dLastPage=1 -dPDFFitPage -r72x72 -sOutputFile=- -q - | convert -resize %wx png:- 'png:%o'

	On Linux systems you will have to set the desired value in /etc/papersize for a2ps
	e.g. a4, or letter

application/msword
application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.spreadsheet
application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.text
application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet
application/vnd.ms-excel
application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document
text/rtf
application/vnd.ms-powerpoint
text/csv
application/csv
application/vnd.wordperfect
  unoconv -d document -e PageRange=1 -f pdf --stdout -v '%f' | gs -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=pngalpha -dPDFFitPage -r72x72 -sOutputFile=- -dFirstPage=1 -dLastPage=1 -q - | convert -resize %wx png:- 'png:%o'

video/webm
video/mp4
  This will take 12th frame of a video and converts into a png. It requires
  ffmpeg to be installed.

  convert -resize %wx '%f[12]' 'png:%o'
