A little tool to convert images to PDF

In the first place its meant to convert scans done with e.g. Scandal
or Scanquix to PDF documents in certain output formats like
A3, A4, A5, Legal, Letter or ImageSize, but it can be used to convert
other image files too.

For requirements see the guide file.

Image2PDF is "Keymailware" ;-) and free to use without any restrictions !!

Just send an email to get your free keyfile with your chosen name.

History :

5th November 2022 --- V1.0
- initial release

12th November 2022 --- V1.1
- minor cleanups
- added AmigaOS3.x version (68k)
- added AmigaOS4.x version (PPC)

13th November 2022 --- V1.2
- its now possible to give the path of the image to be converted via
commandline
- added AROS version (X86)
- added drawer and program icons for the different supported platforms
(thanks Carlo ;-))
- added icons for AmiKit (thanks Jan and Ken;-))

3rd January 2023 --- V1.3
- added icons from Carlo again which were accidently bad converted in V1.2
- corrected "Credits" in terms of the Amikit icon(s) ;-)
- the source folder and the save folder is now memorized when doing more than
one image to PDF
- added requester which asks if it is wanted to do more images to PDF
- added requester if the PDF file already exists (overwrite protection)
- on commandline/shell it is no longer neccesary to give the full path of the
image file
- its now checked if the PDF file to be saved ends with ".pdf"
- improved error message in case of invalid loaded image/file
- added automatic closing of the viewer windows
- added Image2PDF as Hollywood Applet (at least Hollywood Player 9.1 has to
be used)

9th Febuary 2023 --- V1.4
- added the possibility to add more images to a PDF document. (one to a page)
The output format of all pages is chosen after giving the first image
- added a counter to the PDF filenames if the docs have more than one page
(doc_1.pdf , doc_2.pdf .... etc. , can be edited)
- the name of the image is now taken as the name of the PDF document if
the document has only one page, can be edited
- Polybios plugin is now linked to the binarys so that it is not needed
anymore to install it seperately
- fixed guide file so that it can be opened again
- updated guide file
- added tooltype to set default source and/or save drawer. If it is not set
there "ram:" is chosen as default. To set other drawers just remove the
parentheses and change the default "ram:" entry to the path you want.
Then save it to the icon
- fixed an issue which caused an offset positioning an image into a page
- improved icon handling. The name of the binary and its icon can be changed
to "Image2PDF" or just left as it is with the OS specification.
- added possibility to give arguments and parameters with commandline
