Concerning the settings, I only checked the box for color output and OCR ( Tesseract). The rest are unchecked. I don't know what " reflow text", " native PDF output" and " OCR Tesseract " do, but I am hesitant to check them, because as they are they do not affect the conversion ( when it doesn't crash!). I was afraid that by checking " native PDF" and unchecking " OCR", I'd fall back into the problem I had before using your software, i.e. scanned PDF images too slow( or impossible) to open and not allowing font control or other.
Perhaps you can explain briefly what " native PDF", " reflow text" and " OCR Tesseract" do and give me some hints as to why the software crashes so often?
Thanks

By default, k2pdfopt will try to re-flow your text lines if they are too wide for the device, but re-flow cannot be done in native PDF output mode. To use native PDF, you should pick a mode (mode selection is in a pull-down at the upper left of the GUI). Either pick fit-width or 2-column (if there are multiple columns). Native is good for when the PDF is not a scanned PDF and uses internal fonts (you can tell if it's native by zooming in on the document to a very large size and see if the text stays sharp). Please see the
k2pdfopt help pages for more information, e.g. the
native-mode page and the
OCR page.
Also, I have sent you a private message--I'd like to diagnose your crash. Please check your private messages.
