Bug Description

Dear Adam,
I am looking for a way to read in quexml questionnaires printed two pages on one (to save paper). I understood that there is already some functionality built in in quexf to handle this situation, but if I pass the original scanned file (2-on-1) directly to quexf it only detects the page on the right hand side.

To circumvent this problem I tried to convert the pdf with the 2-on-1 into a 1-on-1 document by splitting and rescaling the pages, but either quexf doesn't handle the manipulated pdf at all (nothing happens after a processing time of over two hours- might the file size be an issue here) or the banding when checking the form doesn't match at all- although I manipulated the resolution of the cutted pdf to match that of the original pdf.

Could you please provide me a hint how to either use the built-in functionality or give me some information on what are the essential requirements for the pdf in order to make the second solution?
Thanks in advance and best regards,
Nils
