java -jar pdfsam-XXX.jar


Shortcut

vim /usr/share/applications/pdfsam.desktop

Cliparts

Nowdays you don't need to install it. Just use Google images instead!

Only install that package if you absolutely need to:

apt-get install openclipart-libreoffice openclipart2-libreoffice

!! Careful !! Total is about 760 Mb ! Just install the first package = 160Mb to get some cliparts.
