Bug Description
Hi,
the PDFSam version included in the Ubuntu repos is very old:
available in Ubuntu Precise: 1.1.4
available from http://
Is it possible to get a newer version or are there roadblocks?
Workaround:
* make sure you have OpenJDK installed
* download the ZIP archive from http://
* extract the archive to some folder
* navigate to said folder in a file manager
* right click and open with OpenJDK

Sorry, last step should have read:
"* right click the .jar file, and from the context menu choose Open with OpenJDK"
