In continuation of my last mail, it seems for PDF files it is even simpler.
One needs to  run

  pdfbook -2 input.pdf output.pdf


You may need to download pdfbook, if you don't have it already.

Cheers,

[Ankur-core] The 'r+a' Problem

2006-01-05 Thread dipankar das
As dear friend Jamil Ahmed suggested in feeding bugs to the hungry parrot, 
here are two more:

The 'khanda-ta', when typed in directly from the keyboard by 'Shift+8' does 
not go properly with the newline algorithm. Write any word with that, and 
type more characters before the word that has it, and it will break the line 
before this 'khanda-ta', though no interim space is there.

The table heading. In the ongoing document, i inserted a table, with no extra 
formatting, just some plain words in Solaiman Lipi. Now, in the PDF, the 
table is coming with a bold-and-not-so-beautiful-italic of those same words. 
This thing maybe pretty simple, that some hidden formatting of the table is 
remaining somewhere in the default. But the odt is always showing the correct 
thing, and the pdf always showing them that way. 

And is there any way to copy and paste some small amounts of Bangla text from 
the odt file into a graphics program like 'dia'? The OOo Draw is either not 
very easy and elegant till now, or maybe it will need a lot of training, but 
i need some very simple diagrams, with some Bangla text in it, is there any 
alternative?

Thanks for that. This pdfbook thing is interesting, i downloaded and installed 
it. But, the problem is that, it is doing the work in a preformatted way, and 
that way does not fall in line exactly with the need. Like, i changed the 
page size to a custom 13 cm by 21 cm with 2.4 cm margins on all sides, a size 
quite near to the usual Bangla book size, and the pdf now had 84 pages. Now 
running 'pdfbook -2 input.pdf output.pdf' was putting page 1 and 84 on 
the first paper page, page 2 and 83 on the second, and that too in the 
reverse orientation of the first, and then 3 and 82, in the same orientation 
of the first, and so on ... . The orientation is no problem, after getting 
the printout, we can physically arrange them. But, the problem is, the pages 
must come in order. Can you suggest any wayout? I tried the group '-s' option 
with pdfbook, but it was of no avail. The pdfbook.c file is there. And you 
are all learned technical people, can any of you come to any help? I think 
this pdfbook is a very good direction.
