"-comax 1" also didn't help...
Thanks in advance...

These types of PDFs, with complicated / interrupted column flow, are typically not handled well by k2pdfopt. I need an alternate detection algorithm for flows like this that is smarter about anticipating the interruption. I processed the file somewhat by brute force--by using the -ibox option to ignore the dark "balloons" that interrupt the column flows:
Code:
k2pdfopt handbook.pdf -dev kp3 -ch .75 -ibox3 3.157in,6.032in,1.808in,2.342in -ibox4 5.41in,4.787in,2.149in,2.742in -ibox5 5.528in,1.364in,2.016in,2.683in -ibox6 2.949in,3.69in,2.357in,3.468in -ibox7 2.979in,3.216in,2.253in,3.483in
The result is attached.
