How to stretch a GIMP image and rebuild as a PDF file.

[Brian Cluff]

Next time you might want to try using pdfseperate from the 
poppler-utilities package.  I believe that you will find that it pulls 
your PDF apart into seperate pages otherwise completely intact.

You might also want to take a look at pdfmod from the pdfmod package. It 
will allow you to rotate, extract, remove and reorder pages via drag and 
drop.
