In some cases, the PDFs are not usable. So one needs to download images one by one. This script does this:

lastpage="dernière page à télécharger"
for i in $(seq 1 $lastpage); do
p="http://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/identifiant du livre/f$i.highres"
wget -U DummyBrowser/0.1 $p -O page_`printf %04d $i`.jpg;
done
