Greetings,
I have been searching for some application with functionalities like MODI (Microsoft office Document Imaging)
Many I have checked does not cut it or not cross platform.
Evince just allows multipage viewing, not extraction of individual pages in to another file.
GUI is a necessity.
I am aware of tifflib, imagemagick, but but not sure about a decent GUI wrappers for them.
The file numbers are huge.
I have tried many things for almost a fortnight or so to even remember all those names.
None of them "cuts it" per se.
I _know_ this query is not Centos Specific, but I also know that I can get a viable answer here along with a rap in the knuckle.
Any pointers?
TIA

Just did it with LibreOffice 3.4.5.
Does not even open the tiff file!
uname -a yields:
Linux xxxxxxx 2.6.32-279.5.2.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Aug 24 01:07:11 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Thanks

Tried GIMP?

Yes, that is the first thing I tried. but too slow for the task at hand.
An average operator is able to process about 1000+ images per shift with MODI.
And I can't automate it with imagemagick+ some bash script as it is inherently a visual task -- meaning human intervention is required.
I am trying TIFF-->PDF and then PDFShuffler but that does not help me crop a part (say signature/photo appearing at random location) and insert it as a new page.
GS gives me reasonable filesize with -r300. but I somehow not prefer tiff->pdf->tif route....
Gwenview/gthumb/ and other image handling apps just cant handle multi-page tiff files.

have you tried "display", it's the imagemagick GUI.

Yes. It can only display. one cannot select pages and export/shuffle them around.
Incidently I noticed that pdfedit buildlog is available but no rpm for Centos 6. http://pkgs.repoforge.org/pdfedit/_buildlogs/pdfedit-0.4.1-1.el6.rf.x86_64.k...
/ducks I know, I know "it is a repoforge issue" et. al. but this is my kinda "home" list. where else will I go back crying when something doesn't work?
