| npnth | I'd like to add some author/title/year metadata to some pdfs. I'm currently using a script with the relevant line of http://ix.io/2hhZ . | 00:23.46 |
| | However, sometimes this drastically blows up the filesize of the result. | 00:23.59 |
| | It also seems to reprocess the whole thing, one page at a time, which is slightly irritating but not as bad as the filesize thing. | 00:24.41 |
| | Is there a -dACTUALLYJUSTAPPENDTHEPDFMARKS option that I can use or something? | 00:24.59 |
| | Ideally I'd like to keep as much of the file as untouched as possible. Some of these files have detailed figures, so I very much do not want to reprocess or recompress any embedded images. | 00:28.41 |
| chrisl | npnth: "(re)processing the whole thing" is how Ghostsrcript/pdfwrite works. | 06:36.53 |
| ator | npnth: you can use mupdf's scripting tool to do this. see http://ix.io/2hjz for an example of a script you can use with "mutool run" | 09:11.00 |
| chrisl | ator: Ah, thanks for replying - I meant to ask you if mutool could work, but I forgot..... | 09:19.55 |
| npnth | chrisl, ator: thanks, I'll look into that. | 11:22.35 |
