New features:
1. Import also rotates images properly for scantailor
2. After Scantailor completes, it opens for you to adjust output
3. After you close Scantailor, ABBYY Finereader opens and creates PDF
4. Show a Before and After thumbnail in progress bar
New problems:
1. Features #1 and #4 use PIL, an additional module added to this release.
2. PIL is supposedly (see their website) not yet functional on Python 2.7 for Mac and Linux, though it works for Windows. Mileage may vary.

Re: Updated: DIY E-book Creator 0.0.3
PIL works perfectly for me on Python 2.7 on Linux with the latest libpng and libjpeg libraries. I've used it for a ton of projects and it has never let me down.
If you want a replacement for PIL, try out ImageMagick. It isn't a Python module, but it is a universal CLI image manipulation program that can do almost anything. Image rotation, format conversion, drop shadows, Fourier transforms, arbitrary matrix transforms.
I've bundled it as a portable executable for Bindery here along with a ton of other CLI utilities, so you can incorporate it into your Django project via a subprocess.Popen() call pretty easily.
