PDF - Conversion in BOSS Linux

Well ,today while I was browsing, found 2 excellent utilities in debian linux

1. Convert Image(s) to PDF
2. Convert PDF to Image(Google Docs!!)

How to  Convert Image to PDF ??


  • ImageMagick
    Type the follow line to  terminal to install ImageMagick:
    sudo apt-get install imagemagick
  • Go to the work directory (directory of jpegs):
    cd work/directory/path
  • Convert the JPG files to PDF:
    convert *.jpg foo.pdf
  • for example , if you have jpeg images in /home/krish, the script is ,
     cd  /home/krish
     convert *.jpeg out.pdf

At last you will get all the images converted   to a single pdf file( out.pdf )

Yup!!!!
