Poppler doesn't have dependencies on X but it does depend on some standard unix libraries (freetype and fontconfig always, zlib and libjpeg depending on how it was compiled, glib if you use glib bindings).
It gives you all the code to do what you want - example programs in utils directory do the things you describe so you can use them as a template. However, you might be better served by http://podofo.sourceforge.net/ which is designed as a PDF parsing library. As for python, there are pure python libraries like http://pybrary.net/pyPdf/ and http://www.boddie.org.uk/david/Projects/Python/pdftools/. -- kjk | http://blog.kowalczyk.info On 11/16/06, Fabien Meghazi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hi all, I was searching for a pdf library and I found poppler after following links to xpdf. I need to "parse" pdf files in order to extract fonts, images, block of texts, informations, ... but I need to do this on a webserver. Does poppler rely on an X server or can it be used without? Is there any planning into ruby or python binding for poppler in the future ? -- Fabien Meghazi Website: http://www.amigrave.com Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] IM: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ poppler mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/poppler
