pdftk

I'm using XFDF files to fill out PDF-forms serverside with PHP and pdftk but my problem is that no non-english characters (ä, ö, å etc.) are printed to the form fields. Here is the function I use to parse the XFDF file: function createFDF($file,$info,$enc='UTF-8'){ $data='<?xml version="1.0" encoding="'.$enc.'"?>'."\n". '<xfdf xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/xfdf/" xml:space="preserve">'."\n". '<fields>'."\n"; foreach($info as $field => $val){ $data.='<field name="'.$field.'">'."\n"; if(is_array($val)){ foreach($val as $opt) $data.='<value>'.htmlentities($opt,ENT_COMPAT,$enc).'</value>'."\n"; }else

I have an a6 pdf book. I'd like to convert it to an a4 pdf so that when I print it, I can cut the a4 page in two (upside and downside will have the same content, so I'll end up with two copies of the book) and when putting together the pages, they can be read in sequence (I think this is called impose) Supose A,B,C,D are 4 pages of the book. I want the resulting file to be: DA DA and CD CD Was I clear? Sorry if I'm not using the correct terminology. as suggested, the mighty Multivalent tools are the solution, but they need to be combined with my Script I attach to perform the task you desire

I'm trying to fill pdf documents using PDFTk. Script working fine, it fills inputs in form but I don't get special characters [polish charset: UTF-8 or ISO-8859-2]. Script: https://github.com/mikehaertl/php-pdftk The weird thing is that generated pdf actually has polish characters when I click on field. Before click: After click on field: Default encoding is set to UTF-8. The problem is that PDFTk can't use chars outside the standard ASCII with FDF form fill. It doesn't allow multi-byte characters. What I did: Add fonts to pdf files (checked and files has font) Create fields in pdf files with

I made a small app with node webkit. Pre-packaging, it works fine. But after I zipped it and added it to Contents/Resources in node-webkit.app I get an error when I run the app. It opens fine, but the task it does involves child processes, and I get this error: Uncaught node.js Error Error: spawn ENOENT. I'm guessing it might be something related to the issue raised in this question: Node-Webkit Child Process Exec because my child processes are calling pdftk, a separate command line program. Ultimately, I'd love to install pdftk as part of my app - I have not been able to figure out how to do

I am finding it hard to phrase this question and could not find an online solution for what I'm trying to do. I know how to split a large PDF into single pages with PDFTK using the following script: pdftk your_file.pdf burst output your_directory/page_%02d.pdf But now I want to split the PDF by every other page, so that each new PDF has TWO (2) pages (e.g. pages 1 + 2 together, pages 3 + 4 together, 5 + 6, etc.). I know that Acrobat does this like a champ, however I need something I can execute from Powershell. I am open to alternatives/workarounds, like taking the single pages and combining
