I have an input pdf file which is using type3 fonts. The glyph definitions contain inline images and flate decode filter applied on them.
My moto is parse the glyphs to postscript. Does i need to remove the filter from the data manually or just take the binary data as is to postscript. I have read postscript support flate decode filters.Here is the sample glyph definition:

You can try this forum - PostScript Programming . Doesn't look like it will work, the data source must be reusable and you have an unparseable array. Long way off.
