I had physical books to start with . Had access to a proffessional cutter , got the spines cut out. Had an hp n601 i think , which has adf and lets you get a pdf file with scanned pages . I could only scan one side at once and not more than 50 sheets of paper at a time . So i have even and odd numbered pages pdf files . Sometimes i had missed pages and just scanned the missing pages instead of redoing the whole scan again . Because of missed scans i have to manually rename those scans.
I tried to convert pdf of scanned image file into sparate image files and try a file renamer utility to rename the different images as even pages and odd pages and place them together and make a pdf
When i convert them to tiff or jpeg with nitro or nuance the size is about 500 - 700 kb and they lose detail .
For example part 1.pdf had 29 pages in it at 22.9mb with odd numbers . When i converted them to images it was roughly the same size but they lose resolution. Then i tried adobe elements to extract images and they are in the range of 1mb- 2.5 mb if its jpeg and ifits tiff its 43 mb per scan roughly.
The scan of the whole book is about 250mb and has about 13 parts with even pages . Odd pages and missed scan pages.
Then i i tried to merge two pdf files from part 1 and part2 and get a unified pdf . That worked fine , no loss of resolution but how do i rearrange pages , because when i combined the files i had 1st pdf pages and then 2nd pdf pages . So the sequence of reading as it is would be like 1,3,5,7...,47,49,2,4,6,...,48,50. Thats why was asking how to rename files in pdf as to re arrange them
