I need to split one PDF file into multiple PDFs, but using specific page ranges.
This CPDF command will split multiple page ranges, but merge them into a single PDF file.
cpdf in.pdf 1-3,90-97,112-end -o out.pdf
I need a command that will carry out a similar function to the above command, but output each page range to its own PDF.
I've looked for solutions to this problem in the PDFTK and CPDF documentation, but haven't found any help.
I'd like to install the image editing CLI program NConvert to WSL, but I'm not sure if this is possible, since NConvert isn't in any repository. There is a procedure I could implement to attempt an installation, but I'm cautious, as I don't want to break anything.
I was considering installing it with the following steps:
ubuntu@DESKTOP-NAC9118:~$ wget http://download.xnview.com/NConvert-linux64.tgz
ubuntu@DESKTOP-NAC9118:~$ tar xvzf NConvert-linux64.tgz
ubuntu@DESKTOP-NAC9118:~$ cd NConvert
ubuntu@DESKTOP-NAC9118:~/NConvert$
This last step has me confused, as I'm not sure if I should copy the NConvert executable to C:\Users\dmm\AppData\Local\Packages\CanonicalGroupLimited.UbuntuonWindows_79rhkp1fndgsc\LocalState\rootfs\usr\bin\ or someplace else. I would also need to open the bin folder in root and change the permissions of NConvert with chmod -R 755.
EDIT: I solved the problem. The mistake I was making was assuming there was no /usr/bin folder into which to copy nconvert, because when I ran ls at the Ubuntu prompt it didn't show me the FHS, but just some files. I needed to run ls / and then I was able to see the FHS. I copied nconvert into /usr/bin and did chmod and it works fine now. – user8547
I'm having bootup problems with my Linux Mint installation. I'm using an Ubuntu live usb to back up my stuff. I want to mount my ENCFS container to back up the files, but I can't figure out how to do it from a live disk. Can this be done?
When I installed Linux I chose to encrypt my hard drive, including the home folder. If I delete a file in the normal fashion (not securely deleting it with overwrites) will it not be recoverable by virtue of being on an encrypted drive?
