A couple of weeks ago, I needed to join two PDFs together in one. And I was rather disappointed being unable to find a graphical frontend for command-line tools like pdftk for Linux. When I came across the Python library pyPdf, I thought that I could easily hack together a little Python GUI that would help me achieve my goal.
Well, after too many hours of Python-coding and figuring out how debian packages are assembled (never worked with ar before!), I finally got something working and pyPdf-GUI was born. It is a little pygtk, glade based GUI, with currently only English and German as locales and no documentation available. Hey, you’ve got to start somewhere! 😉 I hope to include more languages and documentation in the next release (current: 0.0.1).
