It sounds like it has problems depending on what version the source file is though... |

It's a command line shareware tool which can extract bookmarks to an XML file and also creates bookmarks from the XML file. The trial version adds the random string "[ TRIAL * ]" to a few bookmarks, but with BeCyPDFMetaEdit you can remove them. Quote:

Tons of thanks to theguru for this program.
HarperCollins books were mangled on my Reader so I couldn't see chapter breaks, but when I put the files I bought through sopdf they display beautifully! Pictures here: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=50408 |

This is a great progress
I am wondering whether this effort can be merged with the multi-column converter?
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=184 I see a strong use case for a program with combined functions. |

@inew It would be nice but the functionality of the two programs are much different. One program coverts the PDF to images and manipulates the image. The other program crops the PDF.

I just had to post a reply saying that soPdf is awesome. Technical PDFs were nigh unreadable without it. Either everything is so small I'd get a headache from reading it, or I'd lose formatting and not be able to read diagrams and code snippets. Thanks to soPdf, I can actually enjoy reading coding books on my PRS-505. Now this should hold me over till the Plastic Logic device shows up.. Thanks, soPdf author!

It seems that a good chunk of the PDFs I have run sopdf against end up losing their metadata. These are shown on the sony reader (and in Preview) with no title or author. Prior to running sopdf, the title and author were just fine. The sopdf execution went successfully, and viewing it one can see that it worked, cropped and split as they should be, just the metadata was removed.

I'm getting this error: This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.
Any ideas? I never use Windows so I am (happily) illiterate on it. That was on a (vmwared) wxp. (Yep, tried wine, doesn't work on it either) |

grimborg,
There's a linux port of sopdf on page 2 of the thread. There's no need to try Wine or fire up a VM. |

GNU/Linux users, check unpnup:
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...ghlight=unpnup It uses pdftk and poster to split pdfs. EDIT: The port in #43 also removes margins, thus it's probably a better alternative. https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...0&postcount=43 Last edited by grimborg; 11-02-2009 at 09:46 AM. |
