Or PDF ones! This is one of the tools I often use in some document processing workflows. Typically: bundling scanned documents into PDF pages. > Upstream has been mostly inactive for some time.

Unfortunately this is not really in my skills. Ideally this should be upstream's job so I think what is mostly needed is a new upstream… If someone can be found to handle the coding work, I would be glad to do adopt the package. -- ,--. : /` ) Tanguy Ortolo <xmpp:tan...@ortolo.eu> <irc://irc.oftc.net/Elessar> | `-' Debian Maintainer \_
