Marvin Beans and applications can import and export PDF (Adobe Portable Document Format) files. If PDF file serves as input, Marvin converts the chemical names in the text into structures. The pictures are also converted if OSRA is installed and it can recognize the picture as a chemical structure. See well known limitations of OSRA here. If a structure is exported in PDF format, Marvin saves it as a vector graphical image.

The PdfExport module recognizes the common image export options.
