This is useful for providing PDF rendering functionality as a shared library. &lfs81_checked; Package Information Download (HTTP): Download (FTP): Download MD5 sum: &poppler-md5sum; Download size: &poppler-size; Estimated disk space required: &poppler-buildsize; Estimated build time: &poppler-time; Additional Downloads Download (HTTP): Download MD5 sum: &poppler-data-md5sum; Download size: &poppler-data-size; Estimated disk space required: &poppler-data-buildsize; Estimated build time: &poppler-data-time; The additional package consists of encoding files for use with Poppler. The encoding files are optional and Poppler will automatically read them if they are present. When installed, they enable Poppler to render CJK and Cyrillic properly. Poppler Dependencies Required and Recommended , , , , and Optional , , (for downloading test files), , , , , , (required for PDF support in ) User Notes: Install Poppler by running the following commands: mkdir build && cd build && cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr \ -DTESTDATADIR=$PWD/testfiles \ -DENABLE_XPDF_HEADERS=ON \ .. && make In order to run the test suite, some testcases are needed and can be obtained only from a git repository. The command to download them is: git clone git://git.freedesktop.org/git/poppler/test testfiles. Then issue: LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 make check. Only the Qt5 libraries are tested. Now, as the root user: make install && make -C qt5 install && install -m644 poppler-qt5.pc usr/lib/pkgconfig To install the documentation, run the following commands as root: install -v -m755 -d /usr/share/doc/poppler-&poppler-version; && cp -vr glib/reference/html /usr/share/doc/poppler-&poppler-version; Poppler Data If you downloaded the additional encoding data package, install it by issuing the following commands: tar -xf ../poppler-data-&poppler-data-version;.tar.gz && cd poppler-data-&poppler-data-version; Now, as the root user: make prefix=/usr install -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release: This switch is used to apply a higher level of compiler optimizations. -DTESTDATADIR=$PWD/testfiles: Tell the test programs where the auxiliary files are located. -DENABLE_XPDF_HEADERS=ON: Install some old Xpdf headers required by certain programs (e.g. Okular, LibreOffice and Inkscape). -DENABLE_GTK_DOC=ON: Use this parameter if GTK-Doc is installed and you wish to rebuild and install the API documentation. LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 make check: Run the test suite. The environment variable LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 is only needed if the default locale does not include UTF-8.
