mcf2pdf Converter for Mein CEWE Fotobuch (My CEWE Photobook) files to PDF

Development discontinued

Hey all, thanks for all your GitHub stars and downloads :-) As you can easily see from the change dates of the files, the development of mcf2pdf is stalled - at least here, in the original repo. Mainly because of lack of time on my side and too many recent changes in the MCF format.

As I can see from many bug reports and requests, mcf2pdf (in this version) may not work at all with recent MCF files.

But hey, there are alternatives!

• There are some forks, check them out! On the upper right, click the number behind "Fork". This fork tried to fix at least some common issues, but has also not been updated for several years now. Other people may still continue to work on their fork.
• If you are a developer, you could fork this repo and update the software yourself.
• Personally, I appreciate the new "cloud service" https://www.cewe-myphotos.com/. Here you can upload your photobooks and share them with others even before printing - exactly that was my main motivation to create mcf2pdf (to get feedback before printing). So the need for a software like mcf2pdf is much lower - at least on my end.

If you have or create a good (working) fork of mcf2pdf, feel free to let me know (e.g. via an Issue in this project), and I will link you in this README.

If you are interested in the previous README file here, you can find it now at README.old.md.
