Indeed and I regret the using those strong a words; thank you for putting the other view. I think what I was getting at was that was that if there happened to be another package you were interested in to the same degree, all things being equal, packaging something for "main" is more sensible. Y'know, and it's free software... That whole "thing". :) Regards, -- ,''`. : :' : Chris Lamb `. `'` la...@debian.org / chris-lamb.co.uk `-

I suggest not to be afraid. If you feel that it's a useful package (I do), and want to accept critique learn and improve as you do the packaging, then I suggest do go boldly forward. Greets, *t

Hi Chris, > If this is your first package to Debian, for a variety of reasons I > don't recommend packaging something that will go to non-free. Yes, this would be my first package, I understood that it is inappropriate to initially send something like this, I will close the bug.

Hi Alexandre, With cpdf you can scale, crop, set pdf version, it is one of the advantages I see. For example: Convert an A4 page to A3, for example: cpdf -scale-page "2 2" in.pdf -o out.pdf Include the pages of a file to fit the A4 image: cpdf -scale-to-fit "297mm 210mm" in.pdf -o out.pdf cpdf -scale-to-fit a4portrait in.pdf -o out.pdf Change file to PDF 1.4: cpdf-set-version 4 in.pdf -o out.pdf Can I do this with pdftk? thanks, Francisco signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

What does cpdf can do that pdftk can't ? Greets, Alexandre
