Poppler programming

Poppler is a classic example of something without documentation that you would prefer be documented. This question is language agnostic, just asking about the general idea.. In short, how do you make a PDF viewer control with poppler? From what I can tell, you'd need to use poppler to render it to some surface, which sounds good up until...

have you got a py-poppler-qt example?

Hello everybody, I'm developing an application in PyQt4 that eventually has to open and show PDF files. For this task there is a python library: python-poppler (in various spelling flavours).

Extracting text from PDF with Poppler (C++)

I'm trying to get my way through Poppler and its (lack of) documentation. What I want to do is a very simple thing: open a PDF file and read the text in it. I'm then going to process the text, but that doesn't really matter here. So... I saw the poppler_page_get_text function, and it kind of works, but I have to specify a selection rec...

Qt: Add poppler library

I have downloaded Qt SDK (with the libraries) for Linux from the Qt website. Now I want to add the poppler library to it so that I can read PDF files. But the problem is if I install libpoppler-qt4-dev from the Ubuntu repos it pulls all the Qt libs which are already there in the SDK. How can I simply install poppler without the extra bl...

iPDF-poppler passworded document

Note: I am not sure if this is better here, or at superuser, but since it concerns the poppler library, I would assume here, because people here are more likely to know how it works. Software: iPDF 2.12 + Poppler 2.11 (Last commit 2006-12-12) for Irex Iliad. Sources are here. Problem Documents: Sciam digital PDFs (any of them, since all...
