SWAP PDF pages after scan of a two-sided sheet pack through a one-sided feeder.

swapdf is the typical example of a program written in order to scratch a single itch.

Let's have a two-sided sheet pack we want to scan through a one-sided feeder. Then:

- we open the scan utility, say simple-scan aka Document Scanner
- we click the "All Pages From Feeder" option
- we scan all odd pages
- then we turn upside down the pack and we put it again in the feeder
- we scan all even pages
- finally we save our pages in a file, say 'Scanned Document.pdf'

Now 'Scanned Document.pdf' contains odd pages in ascending order, followed by even pages in
descending order.

For instance, say our sheets are 4, so our pages are 8, so 'Scanned Document.pdf' contains
the pages:

1 3 5 7 8 6 4 2

We issue at terminal:

$ swapdf 'Scanned Document.pdf' mydoc.pdf

or simply:

$ swapdf mydoc.pdf

because 'Scanned Document.pdf' is the default input file.

Now mydoc.pdf contains the pages:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

in the right order.
