Hi Francesco,

Thanks for the confirmation, I was hoping that was the situation. Sorry for the 
poor phrasing.

What are your plans for the remaining steps before the back-merge, will that 
happen in the pdfmm repository or in a branch in the new podofo one?


Cheers,
Christopher

Please note that what you suggest it's already in place in pdfmm: I use fmtlib 
in place of std::format and a backported std::span.

Thinking a little bit more about the topic, let's not argue too much about 
this: for the API/ABI surface I will just stick to C++17 requirement and hide 
the fact I'm using std::format and std::span.

Cheers,
Francesco
