HOWTO : Make-PDF tools on Ubuntu Desktop 12.04 LTS

make-pdf tools consists of make-pdf-javascript.py and make-pdf-embedded.py which allows penetration testers to embed file or javascript to a pdf file.

make-pdf-javascript.py allows one to create a simple PDF document with embedded JavaScript that will execute upon opening of the PDF document.

make-pdf-embedded.py creates a PDF file with an embedded file.

sudo -sH
mkdir /opt/make-pdf
cd /opt/make-pdf

wget http://didierstevens.com/files/software/make-pdf_V0_1_4.zip
