Description

PdfBooklet is a Python Gtk application which allows to make books or booklets from existing pdf files. It can also adjust margins, rotate, scale, merge files or extract pages.

 PdfBooklet is a Python script whose first purpose was to create booklet(s) from existing pdf files. It has been extended to many other functions in pdf pages manipulation.

There are already multiple software which create booklets, but none had all the features we needed for a precise printing :

    Multiple booklets

    Add blank pages in the beginning in the end

    Adjust scale and margin.

All this is necessary when you want to print a pdf file in duplex (recto verso) because generally the margins are not correct and the even and odd pages don't correspond exactly, or the internal margin is too small and reading may be difficult (for a big book), or external margins are too small and the binder will have problems etc. Sending back the file to ask to correct the margins was a problem : you will ruin a layout if you change the margins of a file ! It was better to adjust the pdf itself. With PdfBooklet we can do a precise job in minutes, and since the software was useful for us, we decided to share it with others.
