Hello,
Calling the Poppler experts
As an easier way than trying to turn it into EPUB, a work-around to read a PDF on an e-reader is to simply turn each page that contains complicated layout into an image. I know it's not as nice as real text, it won't be flowable, but it could be good enough to read.
I see that Poppler offers two applications for this purpose: pdftocairo and pdftoppm.
I have a few questions:
- Which application do you recommend?
- Should pages be saved as JPG, PNG, or SVG?
- What settings should I use for an e-reader whose screen is 768x1024 pixels?
- How to crop pages and get rid of the circles on the sides (used by printers for adjustement?)?
Thank you.
