Ruby script to generate a cool bookshelf-looking webpage for a directory of PDFs.
edit the variables in the make_bookshelf.rb file.
Then copy all these files into a directory that has a /books and a /cover directory
/books directory: has all the PDF files in it [file_name].pdf
/covers directory: has JPGs of the first page of the PDF file name format: [file_name]_thumb.png (129x166 dimensions)
they should have the same name as the PDF files and the suffix _thumb
A great utility for thumbnailing the first page of PDFs in a folder to png's is called ThumbsUp https://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/11898/thumbsup
