# file-jbig2pdf
|
|
|
|
GIMP 3.0 plug-in for exporting lossless JBIG2-encoded PDF files
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
file-jbig2pdf has only been tested on Linux. It requires [jbig2enc](https://github.com/agl/jbig2enc) to be installed, and its *jbig2* and *jbig2topdf.py* commands to be available on PATH.
|
|
|
|
**Important:** file-jbig2pdf requires *jbig2topdf.py* to have support for ‘standalone’ JBIG2 images, which was implemented in jbig2enc commit [bc9ec13](https://github.com/agl/jbig2enc/commit/bc9ec13d64657ff52dca79964acdc9ed1ff0ee30). At the time of writing (November 2024), this is available only in the git version of jbig2enc (e.g. Arch Linux [jbig2enc-git](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/jbig2enc-git)).
|
|
|
|
Install *file-jbig2pdf.py* and *jbig2topdf_lossless.py* under *$HOME/.config/GIMP/3.0/plug-ins/file-jbig2pdf/* and ensure that *file-jbig2pdf.py* is executable.
|
|
|
|
Set up your GIMP image as desired in the standard fashion for PDF export (one layer per page, bottom layer first) and under *File* → *Export As…*, expand *Select File Type (By Extension)* and select *Portable Document Format (JBIG2)*.
