A simple package for embedding PDF images in Jupyter notebooks.
In a Jupyter notebook (plot.ipynb), you can plot figures with CairoMakie.
PNG images are displayed on screen, while PDF images are embedded in the notebook.
Then, PDF images can be extracted from the notebook and saved as image files. For example,
using Base64
using JSON3
json_string = read("plot.ipynb", String)
nb = JSON3.read(json_string)
data = nb.cells[1].outputs[1].data["application/pdf"]
open("plot.pdf", "w") do f
write(f, base64decode(data))
end
Saved images can be used in documentation processors such as LaTeX or Microsoft Word.
