Republishing is separated into 6 steps:

1. Moving the book from the webserver to a work place

1.1 Replacing all spaces with underscores

2. Creating the watermark from the gathered form in Tactical Watermarks

2.1 Create the watermark in pdf with reportlab
2.2 Convert to a png

3. Append the watermark to the pdf

3.1 Burst the pdf into pages
3.2 Rotate the watermark with PIL
3.3 Overlay the watermark with PIL
3.4 Merge all images into a PDF

4. OCR the pdf if not OCRed already
5. Save the file in a directory open to Library Genesis Staff
6. Delete all the unwanted traces
