First words: Our illustrious Admin, our leader, your Neural Network clusters rock! You really are magic! I am surprised that you aren't being utilised better by GNU-Linux for its achieving loftier ideals.
So better to use popplar-utils to extract, and then manually adjust all pages?
BTW, I could have had stupidly posted another question that could have been put up in a different thread. Like gimp run in terminal like popplar-utils. But this idea too defeats the purpose of a GUI.
Thank goodness, this experience already answered that stupid question.
So, if all pages are turned at different angles, and have to be handled manually, it would be better to use popplar-utils and then gimp to cut individual pages (off the 2-page format) and polish up those the pics.
For me, in the end of this chat, I simply wasted your time, energy, money and zeal, that could have been better used for a higher purpose.
I am ashamed, and I apologise. I in fact had asked you for clarifying certain aspects of the pdfimages code line.
Unfortunately, I had by then already set you off on solving the problem via gimp. I have to atone for my putting your abilities on to a poor mission, when the entire community could have been better served by your abilities being put to good use. I apologise to the community too.

rich2005 Wrote:Exporting the layers as individual jpegs. If using the latest Debian, Gimp might not have python support, so the attachment is a script-fu. Unzip and put in ~/.config/GIMP/2.10/scripts.So there is no script file to be run that has gimp run in a terminal and extract individual images? Then in this aspect, pdfimages et al would have indeed been better.
That gives File -> Export Layers put in your export location / filename.jpg to get numbered files. ...

One over large layer I scaled down
One small layer I scaled up.
The whole image I cropped to the size of the 'window' ...
