Script crashes when it's time to img2pdf. Working for anyone else?

[Tenome]

I have all the requirements installed, and I've confirmed that img2pdf is installed and functioning as normal. I'm on Python 3.8.5. Any idea why it might break? It doesn't give an error message, just an appcrash popup.

The developer might give you a better answer, but I would just comment out the img2pdf part (that's what I did), and download the actual images and then use something else to make a PDF out of them. You're better off processing them with ScanTailor Advanced first anyway: https://github.com/vigri/scantailor-advanced

I'm trying to archive a lot of books though, any idea how I could implement another program into a batch?

I don't have one, sadly. But I think you might find better places to ask, if it's just about a program that will collate a bunch of images into a PDF. If you're also interested in OCR, you're really better off processing them first. Keep in mind also that if you want to retain the quality, you're either going to have to binarize them or have PDFs that are going to be hundreds of megabytes.

Have you found a solution to this issue? It seems to be very user-specific as no one else reported this.

Not me...

You can however open the Downloads folder and compile the images into a PDF manually.
