PDF, Same layout.

ompah · 05-06-2011, 08:27 AM

Hello everyone!

I have a magazine in PDF i wanna convert to iPad,
Currently, it splits all items up, so that my layout is messed up.
I wanna preserve the layout in my pdf and only cut the pages in half in the middle folding line,

I poked around a lot in the settings and now im clueless..
please help me out

I guess a shortcut can be to make the PDF pages to single images and cut the image in half, but i wanna avoid splitting with all 100 pages :O

Thanks,
Daniel

Calibre cannot currently convert multiple-column PDF files correctly.

The pdf doesn't need to be converted to view it on the iPad.

Get Goodreader for the iPad to view your PDF. No need to convert it. You can view it as is.
