there is also pdf2pdf - I cant find which package its in, but its
saved
a few files for me (cleans/scrubs the pdf code as part of a pipeline)
Thanks for the hint. To find a package
http://www.portagefilelist.de/ is your friend.
It shows that pdf2pdf is part of media-gfx/swftools-0.9.1 which is not
in the tree anymore. Furthermore it needs media-libs/pdflib which have
been abandoned, as well. But there is a newer version of
PDFlib Lite (7.0.5p3). Adapting the old ebuild for 7.0.4_p5 does work.
Then media-gfx/swftools-0.9.1 does build and it generates pdf2pdf.
