General :: Concatenate Several Images Into A PDF File With Several Images Per Page
May 2, 2011
I know that ImageMagick's convert program can be used as follows to convert a collection of images -- say, in PNG format -- to a PDF file:
convert *png output.pdf
The problem with this is that each image is then stretched to fit on one page, whereas I would like to keep the original dimensions of the images and put as many as possible on one page in the PDF file before moving on to another page.
I am just spent half an hour hunting for a thing that should be totally available already:USB install images of Ubuntu, knoppix and all the others.And, the only good way are so far complicated tutorials where you extract the stuff from an CD image. Why??Hasn't everybody notices that CDs/DVDs are vanishing big time? That more and more systems don't have the readers anymore? Instead of following a 10 point instruction list, it would be nice to just be able to download a Ubuntu 8.10 or whatever USB image and be able to beam that DIRECTLY to a USB stick with a dd command.
Or am a missing something here? Does this exist?It should by no means be mariginal, considering how important USB stick in specific and flash memory in general have become.
I am running Linux from a DVD, not installed. I am not good with installing software, but since the DVD cannot be corrupted, I am content to operate this way. Lately, I have been having problems that previously did not occur. When I try to click on the checkbox to get rid of emails, it doesn't register in most cases, or when it does, I am clicking multiple times so it registers twice, meaning it is unchecked again. Even more frustrating is some issues that are affecting my ability to update my business. I am trying to modify spreadsheets (text not calculations).
Whenever I try to click & drag to select something to change, it keeps jumping around to select only some of what I want, something else or some combination of the 2. When I try to copy and paste several fields from 1 column to another, everything from the several fields in the source column ends up together in the last field in the target column. I am also trying to download some images from a website. There is a single column of links to the images. I have to click on the link to get to the image in order to copy it, then back out to continue looking for more links to do the same.
My computer keeps jumping back 2 steps, then forward 2 steps, and sometimes I lose my place in that list. I could deal with it if it were a small number of links, but this is a list of probably close to 20,000 links. Again, i am operating off of a live DVD so this should not be corruptible, but this has just started happening, and has been an issue the last several sessions.
using the update maneger to update on ubuntu new linux images available 2.6.31-17 generic and after the download is complete both images exist in the grub menu should i remove them ? or just remove them from the boot menu ? and if so how could i do each.
I am having some issues with downloading images to my website from my suppliers!
I have a text file (extracted from product their product lists) which has all of the image URLs!
I have tried to use php using the below script which was started via a cron job, however exec is blocked and my hoster has told me to use curl..... Is there something that can be written in or with curl to do the same thing?
This header file no longer appears when it is set as the "stylesheet/imags/heading banner"
Ubuntu 11.04 GnuCASH v.2.4.2 (from the ubuntu 11.04 repos)
This worked in GnuCASH Ubuntu 10.04 (gnucash 2.2.9-5) but no longer works after doing a clean install followed by copying ~/.gnucash and ~/.aqbanking back into place. The rest of the attributes of both my custom Invoice & Report stylesheet still work (ie colours, etc.) but even when creating a brand new custom stylesheet I cannot get these images to appear after adding them to a stylesheet and saving the settings. This worked fine in the previous version of the application. I have tried deleting the old stylesheet(s) and recreating from scratch and the only thing that does not work is placing the banner or logo images where they are supposed to be. I've done an strace to verify that the image is being found: it's just not appearing.
[code]...
I have asked around on IRC (irc.gnome.org #gnucash) and it was suggested that it might be a webkit issue, libwebkitgtk is verified as installed.
I'm doing this wget script called wget-images, which should download images from a website. It looks like this now:
wget -e robots=off -r -l1 --no-parent -A.jpg
The thing is, in the terminal when i put ./wget-images www.randomwebsite.com, it says
wget: missing URL
I know it works if I put url in the text file and then run it, but how can I make it work without adding any urls into the text file? I want to put link in the command line and make it understand that I want pictures of that certain link that I just wrote as a parameter.
I have a large number of paper sheets to scan. Instead of an autofeed or flatbed scanner, I'd like to use my photo camera. After a while, it occurred to me that instead of making a photo for each page, I could install the camera on a tripod, set it to record video and then extract the images from the video.
That way, I'd just have to handle the papers: Pick one, place it in front of the camera, wait a moment, replace it. Is there a Linux software to get all images without motion out of a movie? Kind of a non-motion-detection.
I have a system with linux, now i am installing my own software in that system. I want to display my own software logo at the time of booting, insteed of other linux codes (related all service starting informations...). But how can i do that?
i configured NFS server and isntalled all 5 linux CD as iso images on the server.on the client side, i am able to install operating system.ut now want to install some packages.my question is how will i configure yum repository on the client side when my server is having .iso images of OS. am i supposed to install flat files of all 5 CD's in the NFS server. flat files means just copying CD files to share directory
This is not related to Linux but a general query. Is there any free software that I can download and use to burn images in a DVD and view them on a DVD played.
Don't ask why, but this is what I am looking to accomplish:
through a logged in SSH terminal, I want to be able to open an image in the console (runlevel 3) of tty1 (tty1 can be logged in or not, doesn't matter)
I have fbi installed for the console image rendering, but I am willing to change that if need be.
I am interested in making and burnung multiple isos in one cd.I ges first I have to extract them, then join them together by a menu and convert them again into a new iso, just I would need more detail in the mater.the reason of this operation is the following: imagine you have downloaded small distros like poppy linux and others, so one would not fill up your cd at all
I can't open any files such as .png's or .jpg's in gimp. How can I change this. I installed it via pacman. I don't know if this helps, but I'm running kde with arch. I'm guessing I need to add the path of libpng to the plugins section. What should I do?
I desire to take an image,overlay a text on that image;then, use it as aackground or text document.Would I use Gimp;then,somehow mount the image to a theme for x-window?If so,how?I would use a colored background text for various priority rated documents.I would use a yellow background text document with a red cross;and,a blue text, for medical documents[as an example].
I run X only under duress. For years I have used svgalib clients. I haven't gotten svgalib to work on my new machine (or X, either, a different matter). I have come tantalizingly close.Is there any other non-X image displayer?
images in firefox appear to be grainy when being displayed along with text. for example the linuxquestions.org icon on the top left corner of this very page is very grainy ( low quality ... jerky ... un-antialiased dunno how else to explain it) and the same image when opened in a separate tab ( only the image) appears to have changed its quality .. very lean and clear.
Note: this happens only on linux and in every distribution I came across including mandriva, opensuse, slackware, sidux etc.

I am supposed to take some small files, and print them to a specific printer, such that the small files are concatenated into one file. The file name has to be included in the file that gets printed.
Should I be looking to concatenate the files into one file with the file names included, and then print them?
In my file browser (Nautilus), they are displayed in the correct numerical order. However, in Brasero when I order them, it orders them strangely (correctly, but not the way I want them to). They order like this:
1 10 100 101
[Code].....
Can someone recommend a naming convention to rename all these files to so they are in the correct order (for example, cameras use IMG_xxxx.JPG, which is nice)? Can someone give me a Linux command line rename command for these files so they are renamed to display and therefore burn in the correct order?
They're standard JPEG files, so ordering them by the date in the EXIF data might work. I just need the correct commands, or GUI - I don't mind - to get them in order.
I have three hard drives that were previously in a Debian server setup to use LVM that I now need to access data on. The first hard drive had a boot partition along with an LVM partition, the other two hard drives were also LVM.From what I remember I have to mount all three at once for LVM to function correctly but I don't have available hardware (particularly a motherboard that can mount all old IDE).Can I use a USB<->IDE converter to image the disks, and then mount them?What Linux distro should I set up to recover the data?ow do I know what version of LVM is needed?
