<p class="MsoNormal">Hi again Debee, <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">One other thought I had is if you can convert the Tif to PDF. Pdftk has a collate feature that seems it’d solve it in that case.

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Debee,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I do not quite understand, sorry. So are you saying you have two files, one with all odd pages and one with all even?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Anyways I looked in FineReader, and if I create a new OCR project, then choose to open images, there are extra options there and one is to split facing pages.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It appears that anything that can be done during a scanning process can be done when opening images instead using FineReader.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you can get a copy of that it may be worth a look? <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I have a tiff of a book that was scanned several years ago by a student worker.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">He did a superb job, except he scanned all the odd-numbered pages in a chapter, then flipped the stack over and scanned all the even-numbered pages. He created a multi-page tiff for each chapter.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">He then used some software a friend wrote to reorder everything the way he wanted it and created his own PDF. All I got were the original tiff files -- one file per chapter – before he graduated.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Anyway, OmniPage and both Kurzweils have a flip pages feature, but it works when you are actually scanning, not when you have an already-scanned tiff file.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I looked through the documentation for ImageMagick but I couldn’t find anything about automatically reordering pages.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I want to find a batch process for reordering the pages. I was thinking of separating it in to individual pages img001.tif, img002.tif, etc…. I have software to do that … and then renaming the even numbered pages to 2A, 4A etc. but that’s
still manual labor. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I don’t care what the resulting format is as long as pages are in order and it will OCR if needed for a future request.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Anyone have any bright ideas? I can write code if I have to but I was hoping someone already had a program that did it.<o:p></o:p></p>
