Hi @oxplot , thanks for developing this program! I wanted to ask what specific feature this application affords because I can open generic .pdf files directly in inkscape and I was wondering what pdfrankenstein actually does to manipulate pdf files if it ports out to inkscape? Thanks in advance for the clarification and I like how sleek the application looks.

At the time this app was developed, Inkscape couldn't read and write back exactly what it read from a multi-page PDF — thus simply importing and exporting an arbitrary multi-page PDF was impractical. This is what this app mainly achieves.
