You should use img2pdf if +your priorities are (in this order): + + always lossless: the image embedded in the PDF will always have the +exact same color information for every pixel as the input small: if +possible, the difference in filesize between the input image and the +output PDF will only be the overhead of the PDF container itself fast: +if possible, the input image is just pasted into the PDF document as-is +without any CPU hungry re-encoding of the pixel data + +Conventional conversion software (like ImageMagick) would either: + + not be lossless because lossy re-encoding to JPEG not be small +because using wasteful flate encoding of raw pixel data not be fast +because input data gets re-encoded + +Another advantage of not having to re-encode the input (in most common +situations) is, that img2pdf is able to handle much larger input than +other software, because the raw pixel data never has to be loaded into +memory. + +The following table shows how img2pdf handles different input depending +on the input file format and image color space. Format +Colorspace Result JPEG any direct JPEG2000 any +direct PNG (non-interlaced) any direct TIFF (CCITT Group 4) +monochrome direct any any except CMYK and monochrome PNG +Paeth any monochrome CCITT Group 4 any CMYK flate + +For JPEG, JPEG2000, non-interlaced PNG and TIFF images with CCITT Group +4 encoded data, img2pdf directly embeds the image data into the PDF +without re-encoding it. It thus treats the PDF format merely as a +container format for the image data. In these cases, img2pdf only +increases the filesize by the size of the PDF container (typically +around 500 to 700 bytes). Since data is only copied and not re-encoded, +img2pdf is also typically faster than other solutions for these input +formats. + +For all other input types, img2pdf first has to transform the pixel data +to make it compatible with PDF. In most cases, the PNG Paeth filter is +applied to the pixel data. For monochrome input, CCITT Group 4 is used +instead. Only for CMYK input no filter is applied before finally +applying flate compression. Usage + +The images must be provided as files because img2pdf needs to seek in +the file descriptor. + +If no output file is specified with the -o/--output option, output will +be done to stdout. A typical invocation is: + +$ img2pdf img1.png img2.jpg -o out.pdf + +The detailed documentation can be accessed by running: + +$ img2pdf --help + +Bugs + + If you find a JPEG, JPEG2000, PNG or CCITT Group 4 encoded TIFF file +that, when embedded into the PDF cannot be read by the Adobe Acrobat +Reader, please contact me. + + I have not yet figured out how to determine the colorspace of +JPEG2000 files. Therefore JPEG2000 files use DeviceRGB by default. For +JPEG2000 files with other colorspaces, you must explicitly specify it +using the --colorspace option. + + Input images with alpha channels are not allowed. PDF only supports +transparency using binary masks but is unable to store 8-bit +transparency information as part of the image itself. But img2pdf will +always be lossless and thus, input images must not carry transparency +information. + + img2pdf uses PIL (or Pillow) to obtain image meta data and to +convert the input if necessary. To prevent decompression bomb denial of +service attacks, Pillow limits the maximum number of pixels an input +image is allowed to have. If you are sure that you know what you are +doing, then you can disable this safeguard by passing the +--pillow-limit-break option to img2pdf. This allows one to process even +very large input images. + +Installation + +On a Debian- and Ubuntu-based systems, img2pdf can be installed from the +official repositories: + +$ apt install img2pdf + +If you want to install it using pip, you can run: + +$ pip3 install img2pdf + +If you prefer to install from source code use: + +$ cd img2pdf/ $ pip3 install . + +To test the console script without installing the package on your +system, use virtualenv: + +$ cd img2pdf/ $ virtualenv ve $ ve/bin/pip3 install . + +You can then test the converter using: + +$ ve/bin/img2pdf -o test.pdf src/tests/test.jpg + +For Microsoft Windows users, PyInstaller based .exe files are produced +by appveyor.

Comparison to Tesseract OCR + +Tesseract OCR comes closest to the functionality img2pdf provides. It is +able to convert JPEG and PNG input to PDF without needlessly increasing +the filesize and is at the same time lossless. So if your input is JPEG +and PNG images, then you should safely be able to use Tesseract instead +of img2pdf. For other input, Tesseract might not do a lossless +conversion. For example it converts CMYK input to RGB and removes the +alpha channel from images with transparency. For multipage TIFF or +animated GIF, it will only convert the first frame. + +OPTIONAL: + +python3 diff --git a/graphics/img2pdf/img2pdf.SlackBuild b/graphics/img2pdf/img2pdf.SlackBuild new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..87a3ae33eb25 --- /dev/null +++ b/graphics/img2pdf/img2pdf.SlackBuild @@ -0,0 +1,88 @@ +#!/bin/sh + +# Slackware build script for img2pdf + +# Copyright 2020 Alan Aversa +# All rights reserved. +# +# Redistribution and use of this script, with or without modification, is +# permitted provided that the following conditions are met: +# +# 1.
