This is useful for providing PDF rendering functionality as a shared library. &lfs79_checked;&gcc6_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 Poppler Encoding Data 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 Recommended , , , and Optional , , , , or , , (preference is for OpenJPEG1, due to regressions with OpenJPEG2), and User Notes: Installation of Poppler This package can be optionally built with support for only one version of Qt4 or Qt5 or without any Qt support. You can selectively disable support for one or both, see "Command Explanations" section, below. Install Poppler by running the following commands: ./configure --prefix=/usr \ --sysconfdir=/etc \ --disable-static \ --enable-build-type=release \ --enable-cmyk \ --enable-xpdf-headers \ --with-testdatadir=$PWD/testfiles && make In order to run the test suite, some testcases are needed and can be obtained only from a git repository. The command to download them is: git clone git://git.freedesktop.org/git/poppler/test testfiles. Then issue: LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 make check. It seems that only the Qt4/5 libraries are tested. Now, as the root user: make install To install the documentation, run the following commands as root: install -v -m755 -d /usr/share/doc/poppler-&poppler-version; && install -v -m644 README* /usr/share/doc/poppler-&poppler-version; && cp -vr glib/reference/html /usr/share/doc/poppler-&poppler-version; Poppler Data If you downloaded the additional encoding data package, install it by issuing the following commands as the root user: tar -xf ../poppler-data-&poppler-data-version;.tar.gz && cd poppler-data-&poppler-data-version; Now, as the root user: make prefix=/usr install Command Explanations --enable-build-type=release: This switch is used to apply a higher level of compiler optimizations. Other options are: [] --enable-cmyk: Include support for CMYK rasterization. --enable-xpdf-headers: Install some old Xpdf headers required by certain programs (e.g. Okular, LibreOffice and Inkscape). --with-testdatadir=$PWD/testfiles: Tell the test programs where the auxiliary files are located. : Use libcurl for HTTP support. : Don't compile poppler Qt4 wrapper. : Don't compile poppler Qt5 wrapper. 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.
