Pdf Toolkit (http://www.pdfhacks.com/pdftk/) is a handy commandline tool
for manipulating pdfs. It's useful for extracting pages from
Lilypond-generated pdfs; adding pretty titlepages made with (ahem) other
apps; inserting the odd page of real Lilypond output into pdfs made with
OOo; and altering pdf metadata, among other things.
It's no longer included in Fedora because of a licensing issue, and
hasn't made its way into the RPM Fusion repo. The last rpm from
Fedora's repo won't install on Fedora 9 or 10, but it can be
successfully rebuilt as follows:
wget
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/7/Everything/source/SRPMS/pdftk-1.41-5.fc7.src.rpm
yum install gcc-java
rpmbuild --rebuild pdftk-1.41-5.fc7.src.rpm
(takes a while)
Then on Fedora 9 do:
rpm -ivh /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/pdftk-1.41-5.fc9.i386.rpm
or on Fedora 10:
rpm -ivh /root/rpmbuild/RPMS/i386/pdftk-1.41-5.fc10.i386.rpm
Hope this is useful to someone.
