Finally, new release!
Hello guys,
I finally found some time to release the new version of pdfsam. I want to apologise for the long delay but, as some of you may know, I worked hard on a couple of other projects (What A Cult and Sejda) in the past year and pdfsam was left a bit behind. Release 3 of pdfsam is not coming out any time soon so I decided to release version 2.2.2 with fixes to some of the most annoying bugs. Among the others:
- Windows msi installation package supporting silent installation
- New pdfsam-starter.exe and finally no more “javaw.exe not found” error message
- Confirmation sounds are now working on Java 7
- No more “invisible GUI” and crappy “delete gui-config.xml” workaround
- Upgraded thumbnails generation libraries and langpack
As usual the new version can be downloaded here.
Please report back if you find any issue.

MSI installer for the enhanced version
Hi everybody,
I just uploaded the Windows MSI installers (32 and 64 bits) for the enhanced version. The installers allow silent and Active Directory installation. Currently only the pdfsam enhanced version has been ported to MSI installer but with the next release (in about a month) pdfsam basic will have it too. Please report if you find any bug.

New release 2.2.1
Hi everybody,
I released versions 2.2.1 basic and enhanced, available in the download section. In these release you’ll find some library upgrade (JPodRenderer, the thumbnails generation library, among the others) and some bug fixes (most inportant one bug affecting the bookmarks handling during the merge and split). You can find the complete list in the changelogs here.
The ICEpdf thumbnail generation has been upgraded as well to the latest version.
MacOS dmg will be available soon.

Mac dmg archives for 2.2.0
Hi everybody,
finally I uploaded the new dmg archives for the 2.2.0 and 2.2.0e versions of pdfsam. You can find the link in the download section for the basic version and in the enhanced forums for the enhanced version.
Enjoy
New releases 2.2.0 and 2.2.0e available
Hi everybody,
I just released the new versions of pdfsam basic and enhanced. These releases are mainly focused on bug fixes and feature requests. Now the ImageViewer for the single pages preview has zoom in, zoom out and rotate capabilities, the alternate mix has a new option that lets you define the step for both the input documents, the split function has been modified to better handle input files with a big bookmarks tree and should be much faster now splitting these types of files. The user interface has been modified with accelerator keys, warning messages if the destination field is empty and the file chooser now remembers the previous path.
Enjoy.

Mac OS dmg archives
Hi,
I just released the Mac OS X dmg archives version 2.1.0 and 2.1.0e. Here is a small guide to install and set java 6 as a default java version on your Mac.
Version 2.1.0 and 2.1.0e
Hi everybody,
I just released the new version of basic and enhanced pdfsam. In this version almost all the libraries have been update, 6 bugs have been fixed, the new docinfo plugin has been added to the enhanced version (this plugin can be used to set metadata of the document like author, title, etc..) and some feature request has been implemented (DnD support on *nix systems, save/restore of the GUI settings when closing/opening pdfsam and saving the environment will save informations about the selected plugin).
I also created a thumbnails generation library using ICEpdf. This library can be pluged and used as thumbnails generation engine instead of the default JPodRenderer generation library, check this HowTo if you want to try it.
The Mac OS dmg distribution will be ready soon.
Translation template for the new release
Hi everybody,
In about 2 weeks I’ll release the new version of pdfsam, I updated the translation template here so, if you want to contribute and translate pdfsam in your language, you have about 2 weeks.
Thank you
Andrea
