It can certainly be done. It can easily be done using the Imagick extension
(Image Magick extension for PHP), as I have just done something similar
(taking multiple PDFs and combining into flattened multi-page PDFs)
Is PHP the best language for this? Depends on your knowledge and confort
level with PHP. The best language is the language you know best and can
easily accomodate your requirements.

I got a Windows program, which can scan in a book by scanning in the pages
1,3,5, ....n turn the book by 180 degrees and scan in from the back side
n-1,n-3, ... 2. Then the program made a pdf book of the scanned in pages.
I am not sure if a php program is the right way to do, but I thought to do
the same by scanning in the pages (p0001, p0002, p0003, .....) and then
work
on each page in a batch to turn p0001 by 180 degree and rename it to
a0001,
rename p000(n-1) to a0002, turn p0002 by 180 degree and rename it to a0003
....
and add each page to a book.pdf
Is php right for that?
bye
Ronald
