sequence and merge jpeg images using python?

[dili]

hi,

Im doing a project as part of academic programme.Im doing this in linux platform.

Here i wanted to create a application which retreive some information from some pdf files .
For eg i have pdfs of subject2,subject1,in both the whole pdf is divided in to 4 modules and i want to get the data of module 1 from pdf.

For this purpose my tutor told me to use pdftohtml application and convert pdf files to html and jpeg images.
Now i want to create a pyhton script which will combine the pages(which have been coverted in to jpeg images) under module 1 and merge it into a single file and then i will convert it back to pdf .

How can i do this?.If anyone can provide any such python script which have done any functions similar to this then it will be very helpful.


. thanks in advance

Python has a module called pyPdf which makes it possible to fiddle with pdf's directly. It might be easier to do the whole thing with this than the way you're suggesting. I've not used it much, I'm afraid though...
