http://aminet.net/util/conv/Image2PDF.lha

A little tool to convert images to PDF, vice versa and more.

In the first place its meant to convert image scans done with e.g.

Scandal or Scanquix to PDF documents in certain output formats like

A3, A4, A5, B4, B5, Legal, Letter, Executive, US, Comm10 or ImageSize.

Image formats like JP(E)G, PNG, BMP, IFF/ILBM, GIF, TIFF or PCX

can be used.

Additionally you can convert PDF documents pagewise to images like

JP(E)G, PNG, BMP, ILBM, GIF or to PDF and scale images to your chosen

resolution. Conversion of images to other image formats can be done too.

For requirements see the guide file.

Image2PDF is free to use for everyone.

commandline

3rd January 2023 --- V1.3

- added icons from Carlo again which were accidently bad converted in V1.2

- corrected "Credits" in terms of the Amikit icon(s) ;-)

- the source folder and the save folder is now memorized when doing more than

one image to PDF

- added requester if the PDF file already exists (overwrite protection)

- on commandline/shell it is no longer neccesary to give the full path of the

image file

- its now checked if the PDF file to be saved ends with ".pdf"

- improved error message in case of invalid loaded image/file
