Enhancements to AppImage Enhance 'build-appimage' script: - add initial comment block and comments for all major steps in the script for the benefit of casual users of the script - 'configure' to build HTML + PDF documentation - do not remove the man pages from the AppDir (will be used by custom AppRun script) - use a bigger icon - use '-g' for appimagetool so it can figure out the 'updateinfo' string on Travis CI - output big fat warning to users who build AppImage in non-"Trusty" environments Add 'AppStream' metadata file This serves to satisfy desktop environments who want to automatically create menu entries, show screenshots and display software descriptions. Note, this file (qpdf.appdata.xml) may need more tweaking since the Freedesktop folks aren't exactly sure themselves how their 'standard' should exactly look like, and they changed their validation tools quite a bit over the recent years in incompatible ways... Extended and enhanced customized AppRun script - Add a '--ai-usage' invokation param to the AppImage which serves as a starting point to explore the other embedded options - Support displaying of manual pages by running AppImage with added parameter '--man ...' - Also include HTML/PDF documentation, READMEs and licenses into AppImage - Support for more parameters: '--list-man', '--list-pdf', '--list-readme', '--list-license', '--list-html', '--list-exe', '--pdf', '--readme', '--license', '--html' and '--show-apprun' - Support 'fix-pdf' and 'zlib-' as sub-commands (not just as symlinks)

<summary>Structural, content-preserving transformations on PDF files</summary>
<description>
<p> QPDF is a command-line program that does structural, content-preserving transformations on PDF files.
It could have been called something like pdf-to-pdf.
It also provides many useful capabilities to developers of PDF-producing software or for people
who just want to look at the innards of a PDF file to learn more about how they work.</p>
<p> QPDF is capable of creating linearized (also known as web-optimized) files and encrypted files.
It is also capable of converting PDF files with object streams (also known as compressed objects)
to files with no compressed objects or to generate object streams from files that don't have them
(or even those that already do). QPDF also supports a special mode designed to allow you to edit
the content of PDF files in a text editor. For more details, please see the documentation links
below.</p>
<p> QPDF includes support for merging and splitting PDFs through the ability to copy objects from one PDF
file into another and to manipulate the list of pages in a PDF file. The QPDF library also makes
it possible for you to create PDF files from scratch. In this mode, you are responsible for
supplying all the contents of the file, while the QPDF library takes care off all the syntactical
representation of the objects, creation of cross references tables and, if you use them, object
streams, encryption, linearization, and other syntactic details.</p>
<p>QPDF is not a PDF content creation library, a PDF viewer, or a program capable of converting PDF into
other formats. In particular, QPDF knows nothing about the semantics of PDF content streams.
If you are looking for something that can do that, you should look elsewhere.
However, once you have a valid PDF file, QPDF can be used to transform that file in ways perhaps
your original PDF creation can't handle. For example, programs generate simple PDF files but
can't password-protect them, web-optimize them, or perform other transformations of that type.</p>
