OK my update is now finished. Attached .zip is a windows executable compiled under cygwin. It requires the two .dll included therein to properly 'run' the program 'pi.exe'. Can be placed in your path instead of the directory where pi.exe is (BTW, pi = pdftoimage)

Attached is a sample (converted to .gif) that was produced by invoking:
Code:
pi page.pgm output.pgm
Notice how the indenting is retained, but this sometimes breaks down for bullet items. This is a great technique!
