Hi Enric,
Thanks for the reply. I just wish PdfStreamedDocument could be used for
reading too. As it stands it looks like PoDoFo may not be able to do
the job except for the smallest of PDF documents.
Is anyone aware of any other free C/C++ library for reading PDFs? I
can't find one.
PoDoFo would have this section of the market cornered if they provided
this ability. I don't want PoDoFo to allocate much memory while
reading, I just want the data streamed through. Then I can just worry
about my own allocation.
Thanks,
Rob.

Maybe the answer of Dominik to another question few days ago can also
answer your question:

The summary can be: "PoDoFo is oriented towards working with the object
level structure of a PDF, it has to keep lots of stuff in memory"
Regards,
Enric
