problem page, two columns not recognized
I have been using a recommended command from you to optimize a magazine for reading on my kindle. There are a few cases where it fails, so perhaps my command needs further tweaking. The current command line is:
k2pdfopt -bpc 1 -cbox1 0,.52in -cbox2-9999 0,0 -m .11in,.04in,.14in,.6in -x <input PDF files> I have attached a page that the above command line fails to detect that the upper portion is in two columns, resulting in giberish in the output file. Perhaps this is unavoidable, as not all pages are in the same layout, and pages like this will need to be handled as individual cases. But I defer to your superior knowledge of your tool to address the case that it might be possible to tweak the column detection in the command line. Dave PS: In case it makes a difference, this was page 3 in the PDF being processed Last edited by dhdurgee; 06-05-2016 at 10:09 AM. Reason: fix typo, add post-script |

The command line as I used it with these pages was: k2pdfopt -bpc 1 -cbox1 0,.52in -cbox2-9999 0,0 -m .11in,.04in,.14in,.6in -x -ch 1 Of the pages only one was a first page in a pdf file. You can distinguish that one by the extra information at the top above the page image. Thank you again for your assistance and creating this tool. Dave |

That will erase the verticle edges of the box around the boxed text on the one page and allow it to be re-flowed. The -ch 0.5 will break apart the shorter columns. You still have trouble with the first page because k2pdfopt is thinking that the text immediately after the black image is a caption for it and so doesn't break it into the separate columns. I don't have a control for this at the present time. |

Can you post a screen shot of your GUI before you start the conversion? It's a long shot, but are you certain that (1) you have enough disk space for the conversion, and (2) you are saving into a folder where you have write permissions?

Hi. First: thank you very much willus! Your application is awesome, I converted some PDF mathematical texts with this and I can read it in my ereader.
But I must says that I tried to convert somes djvu but the program dont read the files, when I press convert the log screen show that the program cant read the djvu files (but I can read it using windjview or any other djvu viewer). Im using the windows 64 bit version of the program (the last one, the 2.34b) over windows 7. Ijust need to report that, maybe Im doing something wrong. I tried to convert in the default settings and some others but no one works. |

I attached two files that I tried convert. Anyway I must say that this problem is minor, I can export the djvu files to pdf and after make the conversion. Anyway it will be interesting to check what happen about djvu conversion. Last edited by Masacroso; 07-10-2016 at 04:23 AM. |

Ok, I solved the problem: it seems that the program dont open files with spaces in it name, so just making a copy and changing the name to "aaa.djvu" it works.
The weird thing is that this doesnt happen when I choose a pdf file with spaces in it name. |

I also notice that on the Kurtz file, k2pdfopt claims an error converting the blank pages. Not a big deal, but I'll check that before the next release. |
