[Ilugc] [Tip] Create a single PDF from multiple images with ImageMagick

2010-10-12 Thread Tha.Suresh 
Create a single PDF from multiple images with ImageMagick

$ convert *.jpg output.pdf

 Given some images (jpg or other supported formats) in input, you
obtain a single PDF file with an image for every page.

Ex:

a...@arul-desktop:~$ convert *.jpg output.pdf
The program 'convert' can be found in the following packages:
 * imagemagick
 * graphicsmagick-imagemagick-compat
Try: sudo apt-get install 
a...@arul-desktop:~$  sudo apt-get install  imagemagick
[sudo] password for arul:
Reading package lists... Done

I have set up two monitors - and configured them side by side - but all
the display is appearing only on one monitor - how to put some display

One more way of viewing multiple jpg files in a pdf reader (evince,
okular) is to zip all the jpgs and change the extension name from .zip
to .cbz

*cbz stands for comic book archive. (To view image files of a comic
book in a document reader)

p.s.: The output file is not a pdf.
p.s.2.: Not all pdf readers like Adobe Acrobat support .cbz format

Hi,

We are continuing our online packaging sessions from this Thursday.
Every one is invited. Those who are interested to attend please start
reading "new maintainers' guide". The whole session will be based on
that. We will split the session to two - one for people who attended
mini debconf (#debian-in-mentors) and another for those who are new
(#debian-in). Hoping to see some mentors to help me out as well.

For those who are familiar with packaging, it will be a work out
session where you can get real time help with your packages. For new
people we start with an example package.

Thanks
Praveen

I wanted to stress on this. Posting content is more important. WYSIWYG

1.It is not necessary to have RICH content, but a WYSIWYG editor does help in 
posting quickly, as compared with wiki-editor. 

2.We need wiki because we need many people to add content. Plain text or plain 
html only sites doesn't help in collaborative content. Only some part of 
website requires wiki. Main pages still need not be on wiki.

3.WYSIWYG editors are safely and easily integrated with other wiki/cms like 
foswiki,twiki,wordpress,plone etc. Should not it be easy with mediawiki also?

Hi,

I thought it would be pertinent to state my problem in this thread since
I have a problem with MTS too.

When I insert the device in the USB, it does not show up on the device
manager always. It's pretty random. Sometimes it shows up, sometimes it
doesn't. And when I do wvdial, it gets connected most of the time. But
almost always, the connection is very unstable, it gets disconnected
automatically. Not often and not regular. Seems like it gets
disconnected at random times.

When the device gets disconnected, the ttyUSB0 file under /dev/ also
disappears. Sometimes, when I try to connect it throws up gibberish on
the terminal.

Also, one peculiar problem is when browsing, the connections are also
very flaky. Not slow, but flaky. I have to refresh the page twice or
thrice to get it loading. Infact some times the page does not load at
all and gives a "page not found" error. After frantically hitting F5
like 5 times, it gets loaded.

Torrents are fast. No problems. Hits, 200KBps. I'm confused.

I use Firefox4 Beta 6 and Chromium browsers.

Yogesh.
