personal musings on the composition of software

Written By: Chris Schuld Wednesday, May 7th, 2008

Today I ran across a project need for pdftk (AccessPDF) for CentOS5.  Adding pdftk to CentOS5 was more of struggle than I would have guessed because it was not available in most of the repos I normally use.  Google did not yield any pre-build RPM files for pdftk for CentOS5 so I built them for both 32bit and 64bit.

You can access it here pdftk-112-1i386.rpm (for CentOS5 32bit) and here pdftk-112-1x86_64.rpm (for CentOS5 64bit).

    Great! This was great for me – only problem was I needed a more updated version for CentOS 5 due to some formatting issues with Acrobat 9.

    For anyone who is having the same “corrupt” file issues with pdftk, here’s the link to newer rpm version of pdftk for CentOS 5:

    Hope that saves someone hours of searching!
