rmc

Command line tool for converting to/from remarkable .rm version 6 (software version 3) files.

Installation

To install in your current Python environment:

pip install rmc

Or use pipx to install in an isolated environment (recommended):

pipx install rmc

Usage

Convert a remarkable v6 file to other formats, specified by -t FORMAT:

$ rmc -t markdown file.rm
Text in the file is printed to standard output.

Specify the filename to write the output to with -o:

$ rmc -t svg -o file.svg file.rm

The format is guessed based on the filename if not specified:

$ rmc file.rm -o file.pdf

Create a .rm file containing the text in text.md:

$ rmc -t rm text.md -o text.rm

SVG/PDF Conversion Status

Right now the converter works well while there are no text boxes. If you add text boxes, there are x issues:

  1. if the text box contains multiple lines, the lines are actually printed in the same line, and
  2. the position of the strokes gets corrupted.

Acknowledgements

rmc uses rmscene to read the .rm files, for which https://github.com/ddvk/reader helped a lot in figuring out the structure and meaning of the files.

@chemag added initial support for converting to svg and pdf.

@Seb-sti1 made lots of improvements to svg export and updating to newer rmscene versions.

@ChenghaoMou added support for new pen types/colours.

@EelcovanVeldhuizen for code updates/fixes.

@p4xel for code fixes.
