Can you tell me the exact error?

The file doesn't need any installation, it's a single statically linked binary. Yust run e.g.
Code:

./k2pdfopt
. If you need to convert many and/or long documents try the desktop version, but for e.g. a single article (say 6-15 pages), it's bearable to concert it on the device.

Btw: Did you try my pdf reader (flatboat) on N9?

Thank you. Unfortunately I get a "Permission denied" message when I try it, either as root or not. The file is in /home/user/MyDocs/Documents.

I just discovered Flatboat. I installed it and I will try with enthusiasm! I got a few crashes while testing it quickly, but I had a lot of other applications open at the same time so perhaps it is not due to Flatboat itself. Thanks!

Copy it to /home/user/ and chmod 775 it then run it; it works flawlessly ;)


frafl thank you for this! :)



Edit: Just saw flatboat for Harmattan and downloaded the file thinking how did i miss such an app :D While installing i realised I actually had the .deb for v0.6 in my device... For me the v0.8.2 works very nicely; thanks for it :D

That's what I wanted to say but then I tried it myself and found that it worked fine from MyDocs. It is a FAT partition and the permissions were implied, rwxrwxrwx. This in on N900 though. Is it different on N9? Asking just out of curiosity.

Indeed!

Re: [Announce] k2pdfopt - optimize pdfs for small screens
 
yup it doesn't seem to change the permissions on the n9 like the n900 :(

Code:

~# ls -al /home/user/MyDocs/k2pdfopt
-rw-r--r--    1 user    root      10621604 Dec 11 18:35 /home/user/MyDocs/k2pdfopt
~# chmod 775 /home/user/MyDocs/k2pdfopt
~# ls -al /home/user/MyDocs/k2pdfopt
-rw-r--r--    1 user    root      10621604 Dec 11 18:35 /home/user/MyDocs/k2pdfopt
~# /home/user/MyDocs/k2pdfopt
-sh: /home/user/MyDocs/k2pdfopt: Permission denied


Edit: Just copied the same file on the N9 ~/MyDocs/ partition to the n900's MyDocs and the permissions were retained without having to chmod them so its maybe N9+aegis at fault here
Code:

~# ls -al /home/user/MyDocs/k2pdfopt
-rwxrwxrwx    1 user    root      10621604 Dec 11 18:47 /home/user/MyDocs/k2pdfopt

Interesting. Quite the opposite on the N900:

Code:

N900:~# ls -l /home/user/MyDocs/tmp/
-rwxrwxrwx    1 user    root    10621604 Dec 11 01:55 k2pdfopt
N900:~# chmod 444 /home/user/MyDocs/tmp/k2pdfopt
N900:~# ls -l /home/user/MyDocs/tmp/
-rwxrwxrwx    1 user    root    10621604 Dec 11 01:55 k2pdfopt
N900:~#

Edit: Beaten to it.
