How to make transparent background from pdf to png
I try to convert a latex pdf to png and the background should be transparent.
So I use pdftopng from XpdfReader for windows to convert: (bat-File)
pdflatex Other.tex
pdfcrop Other.pdf
pdftopng -r 300 Other-crop.pdf Other
del Other-crop.pdf
The source is:
documentclass[border=10pt,tikz]{standalone}
usepackage{tikz}
begin{document}
begin{tikzpicture}
draw [very thick,fill=green!20!white]
(-4, 4) circle (2.0cm) node {textbf{A}};
end{tikzpicture}
end{document}
from the example how to remove the background for png picture
with the result:
Is there a way to convert the pdf to a png with a transparent background using pdftopng?
tikz-pgf transparency latex-2-png

Solution for pdftopng: (transparent background only)
pdflatex Other.tex
pdfcrop Other.pdf
pdftopng -r 300 -alpha Other-crop.pdf Other
del Other-crop.pdf
Prepare for imagemagick:
- download imagemagick
- download ghostscript
Solution for imagemagick:
define a transparent color in latex:
definecolor{ColorTrans}{RGB}{0, 255, 0}
fill elements with it that should be transparent (background excluded)
begin{document} %DOCUMENT BEGIN
begin{tikzpicture}
draw [very thick,fill=green!20!white,text=white,font=Huge] (-5, 4) circle (1.0cm) node {textbf{A}};
draw [very thick,fill=green!20!white,text=ColorTrans,font=Huge] (-3, 4) circle (1.0cm) node {textbf{A}};
end{tikzpicture}
end{document}
run bat-file and define the transparent color:
pdflatex Other.tex
pdfcrop Other.pdf
magick convert -density 300 -transparent "rgb(0,255,0)" Other-crop.pdf Other.png
del Other-crop.pdf

@MarTin If you change the colour ofA
to white (or any other colour that is not the same as the line around the circle), you can use the-transparent white
option
