Print On Demand services require PDF files in specific page sizes. Scantailor, does not have the option of creating a specfic size. Here's how I add margins to Scantailor output and make PDFs to submit to Lulu or another POD service. A key to this process is to make the inner margins larger than the outer. It is necessary, because the loss of space in the gutter of a printed book. In this tutorial, I have used an extra half inch in the inner margin.
Software used: libtiff-tools and imagemagick (debian package names -- in other distros, it's just libtiff)
All commands are run from the directory in which the output files are located. My files are numbered. The image sizes listed in my commands are if the images are 600 DPI. Adjust as necessary. While it may look complicated, the commands can be run with a single command if placed in a shell script for each page size. Try doing that with Acrobat with a single command!(A more elegand solution would be to add input variables when running the script, but I've never taken the time to do it)
Steps 1 and 5 are optional. I prefer to do them, because I like to preserve the original scantailor output.
1. copy output to a temporary folder
$mkdir print && cp *.tif print && cd print
2. create even and odd folders and move images into them before processing
$mkdir evens odds && mv *[02468].tif evens && mv *[13579].tif odds
3. using imagemagick, add margins to even and odd images with a larger inner margin. (This example is a 6"x9" target size, with an extra half inch in the gutter. Adjust variables as necessary)
$cd odds && mogrify -verbose -gravity center -extent 3300x5400 -gravity east -extent 3600x5400 *.tif && mv *.tif .. && cd .. && cd evens && mogrify -verbose -gravity center -extent 3300x5400 -gravity west -extent 3600x5400 *.tif && mv *.tif .. && cd .. && rmdir evens odds
4. using libtif, make a pdf file of the now correctly-sized images
$tiffcp *.tif print.tif && tiff2pdf -o print.pdf print.tif
5. clean temporary files and move pdf to original directory
$rm *.tif && mv print.pdf .. && cd .. && rmdir print

mkdir print && cp *.tif print && cd print && mkdir evens odds && mv *[02468].tif evens && mv *[13579].tif odds && cd odds && mogrify -verbose -gravity center -extent 2250x4125 -gravity east -extent 2550x4125 *.tif && mv *.tif .. && cd .. && cd evens && mogrify -verbose -gravity center -extent 2250x4125 -gravity west -extent 2550x4125 *.tif && mv *.tif .. && cd .. && rmdir evens odds && tiffcp *.tif print.tif && tiff2pdf -o print.pdf print.tif && rm *.tif && mv print.pdf .. && cd .. && rmdir print

Re: Scantailor images to PDF for POD services on Linux
Since Scantailor-Experimental no longer works with DPI, a couple of changes are necessary for this. I just hacked out a little script that will do all of the work for you to get the images to print sizes. I've included two versions, one with a step for you to input the DPI and one for files with DPI already embedded if you haven't jumped over to experimental.
The first script will ask for the DPI, tell you the size of your image, ask for you to select a target print size from a list, and offer you a custom choice for extending the inner margin based on the available space. If you intend to print a book to have bound or hole punched, I'd make sure you have a half-inch of margin in the gutter so things don't get cut off. By scripting it, there is no longer any math required, which would have gotten old now that scantailor images will come out with different DPIs for different books. I used all page sizes that Lulu.com currently offers. Your original images are changed only by changing their DPI, the resized images are temporary and will be deleted upon completion of the final PDF. If you don't want the DPI info to be written into your original files, just move lines 189-191 to the beginning. (mkdir print, cp *.tif print, cd print)
Prereqs: Imagemagick and Libtiff (libtiff-tools in some distros)
The script is looking for images with number endings. Odd-numbered pages are the recto, evens the verso. There is a single configuration option for the name of the first image, which the script uses to determine size and, in the second version, DPI. The default is just 001.tif.
There are no errors messages, no logging, no nothing. If you ask it to do something that it can't do, like asking for a page size that's too small or an inner margin too big, it's not going to work. Standard no warranty disclaimer applies...

And here's one for images with the DPI already determined (Scantailor-classic)
