Hi All, I am a new user of pdfmod. I've been using it for the last 3 months. I like it.
I notice the use case for what I use it for though is different from those found at: https://live.gnome.org/PdfMod/UseCases
Here is my use case:
Sara is compiling a package of documents for some business partners. The package includes some introductory slides (presentation style) from Impress, and some addendum information from Writer and Calc. She wants all of the documents in a single file to send out. She has tried to use both Writer and Impress as containers but struggles to get each page looking its best using that approach. Instead, she outputs the pdf to send from whatever program she made the document. She then uses PDF Mod to combine them into a single PDF to send out.
Is this a use case PDF Mod is interested in supporting? If so, is there interest in adding the following feature?
Allow the user to add page numbers to each page when saving. The user should be able to choose a font and size, a position (Top Right, Top Center, Top Left, Bottom Right, Bottom Center, Bottom Left) and a format (e.g. "Page #" where everything but the # is printed as plain text and the # is replaced with the corresponding page number for each page.) The page position should work correctly even when different pages are in different orientations (e.g. some in landscape some in portrait).
Right now I have a VM that runs XP in it just so that I can run a freebe windows program to add page numbers to PDFs. If you like the idea of adding this as a feature, I am happy to add it to the bugs list or a separate features list if there is one. Let me know, thanks.
