ImagePageSplitter
Spritting, Joyning, Trimming, Tiliting of double-sided images
ImagePageSplitter is an application that can split self-scanned e-books with double-sided spreads on a page-by-page basis. This is free software provided by this site (apollomaniacs.com). For multiple image files stored in an arbitrary folder, following processing can be performed in common, or separately.
- You can divide one image into two pages, left and right or top and bottom. The dividing position can be adjusted.
- You can combine two images into one image in the left-right or up-down direction. Bonding position and overlap are adjustable.
- You can cut margins at top, bottom, left, right and center of the image (trimming).
- You can adjust tilt, contrast and brightness.
- You can convert image to grayscale (black & white image).
- You can rotate left or right 90 degrees or 180 degrees before and after splitting.
- You can scale up or down images after division.
- After splitting, you can rename the file name by serial number.

On this site, We also distribute free software: eBookshelf Generator that makes "bookshelf for e-books : eBookshelf" with cover images arranged, from e-books or image files stored on hard disk e.t.c. You can browse your e-book collection with an interface like a net e-book shop. If you own plenty of self-scanned e-books, it makes searching and browsing easier and also useful for book management.
Features of ImagePageSplitter
Supports many types of files
There are four types of target image files: png, jpg, gif, bmp.
For png and bmp, full color (24/32 bit), palletized / grayscale format is also supported.
For gif, also supports palette images less than 256 colors.
Splitting in detail
You can select split direction from horizontal and vertical. You can also shift the center position of the split left / right / up and down.
You can also perform margin cutting (trimming) and image correction as shown below with or without splitting.
Image joining
You can combine two images whose file names are consecutive into one image in left-right and up-down directions.
Bonding position (offset) and overlap value can be adjusted.
You can combine e-books divided for each page into a double-page spread,
or join misaligned e-books and then split again into the correct position.
Cutting (trimming) the margin
Margin cutting (trimming) can be performed for left, right, top, bottom, and center.
So you can cut shadows and margins made at edge and center during scanning.
Cut amount can be specified as a pixel or as a percentage of image size.
Image correction
Tilt correction (rotation) can be performed on the image before division.
You can also adjust the contrast and brightness.
Grayscale (black and white) conversion
You can convert split images to grayscale (black and white).
Convert an old book that has discolored into a correct black and white image.
Rotate and Scaling
You can rotate left or right 90 degrees or 180 degrees before and after splitting,
or can scale up or down images after splitting.
Changing file name
It is possible to set file name of split images to favorite serial number (character string + serial number).
Of course, you can use the original file name as it is.
Operation setting for each image
You can specify split, margin cut, image correction, grayscale conversion individually for each image, or for all images at once.
And you can specify whether or not to process them for each image.
You can also copy images not processed to destination folder by changing file name.
Saving and restoring settings
These settings are saved automatically.
So you can stop setting in incomplete and do continuations at a later date.

How to apply settings

Common: Apply the same parameters to all images.
If you click the "Individual" button, after the current setting is copied to all images, you can individually modify each setting.Clicking on the "Common" button will apply the current settings to all images regardless of past image settings. If you change the setting, it will be reflected in all images.
If you select "Individual", you can use "Copy", "Paste" button. "Copy" temporarily stores the setting value of the image currently displayed. Then, when you change image and click "Paste", the temporarily stored setting value is set to current image.

Usage tips
When the color becomes strange
If you specify tilt correction (rotation) etc. to images with small number of palettes (colors), the color may become strange partially.
Please check "Translate monochrome / palette image to 24/32bit RGB image when adjustment" on the "Other settings" screen in such a case.
You can eliminate the color change.
When contrast, brightness becomes brighter than expected
If contrast and brightness correction are performed on image with a small number of palettes (colors), the output result may become brighter than preview on "Image split settings" screen.
In this case, please check "Translate monochrome / palette image to 24/32bit RGB image when adjustment" on the "Other settings" screen.
Tilt correction with only one page tilted
If only one page of the facing image is tilted, please convert them in two steps.
First, simply divide it into two pages, then specify "Not" for split, and specify tilt correction only for tilted page.
Division position correction for images with division position shifted
You can modify split position of facing images split at incorrect position.
Restore original facing images with "Image joining" and specify splitting correctly.
These can be process at once.
When files are read out of order
Depending on how the input files are named, the files may not be read in the correct order.
In such a case, please change the file name in advance using free file renaming software such as Flexible Renamer.
With Flexible Renamer, you can align the number of digits in the numeric part of the file name.
