# Usage and Documentation
64
-
For all document types you can render pages in raster (PNG) or vector (SVG) formats, extract text and access meta information, links, annotations and bookmarks, as well as decrypt the document. For PDF files, most of these objects can also be created, modified or deleted. Plus you can rotate, re-arrange, duplicate, create, or delete pages and join or split documents.

To some degree, PyMuPDF can also be used as an [image converter](https://github.com/rk700/PyMuPDF/wiki/How-to-Convert-Images): it can read a broad range of input formats and can produce **Portable Network Graphics (PNG)**, **Portable Anymaps** (PNM, etc.), **Portable Arbitrary Maps (PAM)**, **Targa Image Files (TGA)**, **Adobe Postscript** and **Adobe Photoshop** documents, making the use of other graphics packages obselete in many cases. Interfacing with PIL/Pillow is easy as well.
