gscan2pdf 0.9.27 (Default branch)
Image gscan2pdf is a GUI to ease the process of producing PDFs from scanned documents. You scan in one or several pages and create a PDF of selected pages. Scanning is handled with SANE via scanimage. PDF conversion is done by PDF::API2. Perl is used for portability and ease of programming, with gtk2-perl for the GUI. License: GNU General Public License v3 Changes:
This release corrects logic for auto-rotating manual double-sided scans. It has a properties dialog to show and change the resolution of the image. It can write images including resolution information, guess the resolution of PNMs from the shape of an image, and convert PNMs to TIFF before giving them to the GIMP. It stops the thumbnail panel from being resized by main window. Image

NAME

       diffpdf - compare two PDF files textually or visually

SYNOPSIS

       diffpdf [file1] [file2]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page very briefly documents the diffpdf command.  (Click the GUI's Help button or press F1 for more information.)

       DiffPDF is a GUI application used to compare two PDF files.
       By  default  the  comparison is of the words on each pair of pages, but comparing character by character is also supported (e.g., for logo-
       graphic languages). And there's also support for comparing the pages by appearance (for example, if a diagram is changed or if a  paragraph
       is  reformatted, or a font changed). It is also possible to compare particular pages or page ranges. For example, if there are two versions
       of a PDF file, one with pages 1-12 and the other with pages 1-13 because of an extra page having been added as page 4, they can be compared
       by  specifying  two page ranges, 1-12 for the first and 1-3, 5-13 for the second. This will make DiffPDF compare pages in the pairs (1, 1),
       (2, 2), (3, 3), (4, 5), (5, 6), and so on, to (12, 13).

       If the program is passed two PDF filenames on the command line it will start up and compare those files in Text mode (or in Appearance mode
       if the filenames are preceded by -a or --appearance).
