Also--the -as option isn't necessary on your particular source document since it is a computer-generated PDF and is perfectly straight. It doesn't hurt except that it burns extra cpu. And why are you using -r to convert right-to-left? Isn't Bengali read left to right? I don't mind at all that you shotgun your solution until you find something that works, or that you are trying to post helpful answers in this thread, but I do think you should fully understand your settings before recommending them to other users in this forum. |

This only happens when using the "gtr" option.. And if I don't use "gtr" some lines becomes smaller as I've shown before. This is how it should look for example. The last line is shown. This happen in my settings too but to a much lesser extent. Please help me fix it if you can. I understand this is a foreign language. What's happening is the software is separating the top/bottom 'signs' from them. I'm attaching the file so you can take a look. Manto.pdf Thanks. P.S. Yes Bangla isn't right-to-left. No idea how that got turned on. Last edited by abe1; 01-17-2019 at 02:38 PM. |

The source PDF is problematic because there are lines of text that don't have a clear gap between them (see attached), causing k2pdfopt to guess wrong at where it should cut them. Higher -gtr leads to more aggressive cutting, but, as you can see, sometimes it is overzealous. I can't find a set of options that work without some mistakes. I'd have to go back and see if the algorithm could be tweaked to work slightly better for this particular case.

Hello willus, I need your help for the same file. In deed, after conversion, I loose resolution in the pdf (so the quality is not good while reading under my PW3). See attached files please. Also, I need to know how can I specify the number of words per line wanted and the numbers of lines in each page after conversion ? Thank your for your time ! Edit : I join the PDF again in this post Last edited by Loyd; 01-23-2019 at 02:03 PM. |

You cannot directly specify words per line or lines per page, but you can specify the size of the font in points the output file checking the "Fixed output font size" box and putting in the value you want, and this will indirectly determine the words per line and lines per page. You can also separately specify the vertical line spacing in the output file with the -vls option. E.g. putting -vls 2 in the "Additional options" box will double-space the output text. See attached screen shot for example. |

I compiled the latest version of k2pdfopt (v2.51a) after your message. My precedent results have been obtained with v2.42. Since I am using the mac version of k2pdfopt I need to ask what is the equivalent of "Fixed output font size" box in the command line ? Based on your suggestion, here is what I use currently : -gs -gtr 0.18 -col 1 -mag 1.65 -dr 2.75 -idpi 600 -vls 1.6 kp3 -x Maybe some commands are not necessary… My purpose is to get closer to what I have when reading an AZW3 (see attached Kindle' screenshots), and it is almost achieved. Thank you. What I try to get right now is : if it is possible : 1. Get the text adjusted (no space in the end of lines). Just like AZW3. 2. Specify the same font in the output file that I use when reading under Kindle PW3 (I am using a personalized one called CharInk). 3. Overcome the artefact encountered on page 16, line 5 (see pdf attached). Great thanks in advance for your time. |

You don't need the -gs option unless you did not compile with MuPDF and are thus forced to use ghostscript. The Mac OSX binaries from my site are compiled with the MuPDF library. To fully justify the text (no spaces at the end of lines in the converted file) use: -j 0+ To eliminate the artifact on p. 16, remove your -gtr option. It's too high and causing overly aggressive line cutting. The default works fine for your document since there is already plenty of gap between the lines in the source file. You should only need to increase -gtr when the lines in the source file are so close to each other that they slightly overlap in places. There is no way to change the font with k2pdfopt. That's not part of its functionality. To do that you need to fully convert the PDF to a different type, such as mobi, which often requires a lot of manual editing, or you need the source document that created the PDF. Also, I think you're over-killing the -dr option. You shouldn't need nearly 3x the resolution of your reading device. All that does is to make the conversion unnecessarily slow and the output file unnecessarily large (in bytes). So my final recommendation is: k2pdfopt -dev kp3 -j 0+ -col 1 -mag 1.2 -dr 2 -vls 1.6 -x m.pdf Converted file attached. |
