What is the best way to run k2pdfopt on an Android phone? I'm assuming via Linux? Has anyone successfully been able to get it to work and would have step-by-step instructions?

I don't have a test platform for compiling or running on an Android phone. I might be able to cross-compile, but I'd still need to test it. Is there a virtual Android phone simulator that will run on either a PC or a Mac Mini?

You should install Termux and install packages k2pdfopt and ghostscript. Termux may not be available on google play and should be downloaded and installed manually. |

All a free download from Google. It was very like doing a Java app, except Google is a pain and keeps changing how you do I/O to SD card or storage. Really Windows for Workgroups 3.11 was better (apart from lack of Explorer desktop, as long as Win32s, 32 bit TCP/IP and 32 bit Disk etc all added), stupid changes since Android 3 and poor UI. Material Design is idiotic. But then I think Win10/Win11/Chrome/Mozilla UIs are all rubbish compared to mac OS9, Win9x, NT4.0/2K/XP UIs. |
