Dear all, I have found a way to import multi-page pdfs. But it is repetitive. I am trying to write a script to automate the process. But I have encountered a problem. If someone on this list can kindly help me out, I'd really appreciate it.
Manual importing multi-page pdf ------------------------------- I found I can do the following (on linux) to import it: 1. use pdftops to extra a single page from the pdf 2. use import ps/eps to import the page in a tmp.sla file 3. use "page->import" to import the page from tmp.sla to the final destination file 4. repeat 1-3 for every page Problem with scripting it ------------------------- I tried to write a script to automate this process. But I found the scripter API does not (or I missed it) have function to import eps/ps, or to import page(s) from a .sla file. I ended up using loadImage to do the job of import ps. But the imported image has very low quality and the resulting file is huge when I export the final .sla back to a pdf. Can someone tell me how to get around this problem? What I want to do ----------------- What I want to do is use scribus as a pdf annotator. I knew acrobat can do it. I tested scribus, it can do pdf annotation on .sla file, but not directly on pdf files. So I try to convert a pdf back to .sla. I hope I have made this problem clear. If not, please let me know. Thanks again for any help and for this great software! Thanks, -Min
