Description David Auer 2019-02-21 01:12:24 UTC
Hello to everyone interested in pdfshuffler,

I want to bring to your attention that there is a fork called "pdfarranger" available at https://github.com/jeromerobert/pdfarranger .

Many small and some bigger improvements have been made to pdfshuffler in this repository for quite some time, some of which have been ported back to pdfshuffler. Watching the development of pdfshuffler and pdfarranger closely for some time and also contributing some patches, I firmly believe that moving to pdfarranger (or at least offer both packages) would be beneficial to Fedora.

Changes include:

- Python 3 support (Support for Python 2 is planned to be dropped, both for Fedora and pdfarranger)
- Uses PyPdf2 as default
- Reverse order function
- Fixed zoom
- Fixed drag and drop for multiple pages


Best regards,

David

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 31 development cycle.
Changing version to '31'.

Since pdfarranger is now available for f30+ therefore I will close this issue.
