impose's Issues

Output looks weird

I am trying to impose 32 landscape A5 to A3. But it just repeats some images on all pages. Page numbers seems to be correct.

using

impose -l quarto -o landscape -d A3 testpages_32.pdf

My pdf:s are too large for uploading.

on the left side of the pdf some images are missing

I noticed only some of the images on the left side of the pdf (after the pdf has been imposed) are missing. But on the right side there's nothing missing. Can someone help me with this issue? I'm using the folio layout A4 .

Breaks on most PDFs: ``_apply': undefined method '[]' for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError)`

Ideas

The line in question is

source_width = @source.page(1).page_object[:MediaBox][2]

, and I believe this means that @source.page(1).page_object is nil.

Maybe this is therefore a bug in PDF::Reader?

PDF::Reader former API is now deprecated

First of all, great work man, thanks a lot!
As mentioned in the official repository, PDF::Reader former API is now deprecated.

Version 1.0.0 of PDF::Reader introduced a new page-based API that provides efficient and easy access to any page. The pre-1.0 API was deprecated during the 1.x release series, and has been removed from 2.0.0.

It would be awesome if you could update the API calls to the latest version.
