PDF-Scanner is a utility that checks PDF documents for empty pages and that deletes them from the documents.
This concerns specially big documents, created by scanning folders with automatic scanners in double side mode. In that case, often the bigger part of pages are empty on the rear side. Therefore, the PDF documents created this way are loaded with a lot of empty pages to make it difficult to look up the documents with Adobe Reader for example.
Moreover, some models of this type of scanners have the mannerism to turn around the back side of the pages by 180 degrees (Upside Down). In this case, looking up the documents results in exercise of gymnastics.
PDF-Scanner examines all desired documents and deletes the empty pages. Moreover it can turn around upside down pages.
PDF-Scanner can be used together with a scheduler and a configuration file in Batch mode for the check of whole directories with PDF documents. The files may be overwritten or new files may be created.
For the dissolution of the PDF documents, PDF-Scanner works with the open source software Ghostscript.
