Re: [Swftools-common] splitting spreads in pdf automatically

[Chris Pugh]

Ahh, with you.. sorry.

In the example you sent, are you perchance referring to pages 2 and 3?

There's a snag..

They are already separate pages, even Adobe's Reader thinks they are;
despite the increased width of pages 2 and 3, it still considers the whole
document to consist of 4 times A4!   If Adobe Reader gets it wrong,
how can pdf2swf possibly be  expected to tell the difference?

Your 'pdf_with_spreads' PDF has 4 pages,  1 and 4 are size A4, 2 and 3
are to all intents and purposes size A3, but Adobe reader thinks otherwise.
