Requirements:
ImageMagick installer from here: http://rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/6 ... 6-8-Q8.zip
Don't worry about installing the gem - I took care of that for you. But you must install ImageMagick itself using the .exe file from that installer, and choose the "update executable search path" option.
jbig2enc from here: http://soft.rubypdf.com/software/window ... -jbig2-exe
This is optional, but you won't gain access to the superior JBIG2 compression without using this. You should place this somewhere that's accessible from your PATH environment variable. If you don't know what that means, then put jbig2.exe in c:\windows

Code: Select all
pdfbeads *.tif > mybook.pdf
