PDF Mod Reworks PDF Pages
Gabriel Burt, desktop developer at Novell, has reported progress with his PDF Mod tool. The new GNOME program allows for switching pages and other useful trickery with PDF documents.
In its new version 0.4, PDF Mod can not only remove, extract, rotate and reorganize PDF pages, but it also allows drag-and-drop of external documents and exporting of JPG and PNG graphics. Pages can be reordered across multiple open documents.
Burt and his colleagues fixed a number of bugs and translated the GUI into 10 languages. The concise user guide was translated into five of them.
Further details on PDF Mod, which had its first ever release the end of July, are on the live.gnome.org project page. The app is written in Microsoft's C# and therefore depends on the Mono runtime environment. In addition to a tarball of the GPL source code, packages for openSUSE 11.1 and SLED 11 are available on the project page.
