(These are also sometimes also called 'Acrobat' files, from -the name of Adobe's PDF software.) The Xpdf project also includes a -PDF text extractor, PDF-to-PostScript converter, and various other -utilities. - -Xpdf runs under the X Window System on UNIX, VMS, and OS/2. The non-X -components (pdftops, pdftotext, etc.) also run on Windows and Mac OSX -systems and should run on pretty much any system with a decent C++ -compiler. Xpdf will run on 32-bit and 64-bit machines. - - -License & Distribution ----------------------- - -Xpdf is licensed under the GNU General Pulbic License (GPL), version 2 -or 3. This means that you can distribute derivatives of Xpdf under -any of the following: - - GPL v2 only - - GPL v3 only - - GPL v2 or v3 - -The Xpdf source package includes the text of both GPL versions: -COPYING for GPL v2, COPYING3 for GPL v3. - -Please note that Xpdf is NOT licensed under "any later version" of the -GPL, as I have no idea what those versions will look like. - -If you are redistributing unmodified copies of Xpdf (or any of the -Xpdf tools) in binary form, you need to include all of the -documentation: README, man pages (or help files), COPYING, and -COPYING3. - -If you want to incorporate the Xpdf source code into another program -(or create a modified version of Xpdf), and you are distributing that -program, you have two options: release your program under the GPL (v2 -and/or v3), or purchase a commercial Xpdf source license. - -If you're interested in commercial licensing, please see the Glyph & -Cog web site: - - http://www.glyphandcog.com/ - - -Compatibility -------------- - -Xpdf is developed and tested on Linux. - -In addition, it has been compiled by others on Solaris, AIX, HP-UX, -Digital Unix, Irix, and numerous other Unix implementations, as well -as VMS and OS/2. It should work on pretty much any system which runs -X11 and has Unix-like libraries. You'll need ANSI C++ and C compilers -to compile it. - -The non-X components of Xpdf (pdftops, pdftotext, pdfinfo, pdffonts, -pdfdetach, pdftoppm, and pdfimages) can also be compiled on Windows -and Mac OSX systems. See the Xpdf web page for details. - -If you compile Xpdf for a system not listed on the web page, please -let me know. If you're willing to make your binary available by ftp -or on the web, I'll be happy to add a link from the Xpdf web page. I -have decided not to host any binaries I didn't compile myself (for -disk space and support reasons). - -If you can't get Xpdf to compile on your system, send me email and -I'll try to help. - -Xpdf has been ported to the Acorn, Amiga, BeOS, and EPOC. See the -Xpdf web page for links. - - -Getting Xpdf ------------- - -The latest version is available from: - - http://www.foolabs.com/xpdf/ - -or: - - ftp://ftp.foolabs.com/pub/xpdf/ - -Source code and several precompiled executables are available. - -Announcements of new versions are posted to comp.text.pdf and emailed -to a list of people. If you'd like to receive email notification of -new versions, just let me know. - - -Running Xpdf ------------- - -To run xpdf, simply type: - - xpdf file.pdf - -To generate a PostScript file, hit the "print" button in xpdf, or run -pdftops: - - pdftops file.pdf - -To generate a plain text file, run pdftotext: - - pdftotext file.pdf - -There are five additional utilities (which are fully described in -their man pages): - - pdfinfo -- dumps a PDF file's Info dictionary (plus some other - useful information) - pdffonts -- lists the fonts used in a PDF file along with various - information for each font - pdfdetach -- lists or extracts embedded files (attachments) from a - PDF file - pdftoppm -- converts a PDF file to a series of PPM/PGM/PBM-format - bitmaps - pdfimages -- extracts the images from a PDF file - -Command line options and many other details are described in the man -pages (xpdf(1), etc.) and the VMS help files (xpdf.hlp, etc.). - -All of these utilities read an optional configuration file: see the -xpdfrc(5) man page. - - -Upgrading from Xpdf 3.02 (and earlier) --------------------------------------- - -The font configuration system has been changed. Previous versions -used mostly separate commands to configure fonts for display and for -PostScript output. As of 3.03, configuration options that make sense -for both display and PS output have been unified. - -The following xpdfrc commands have been removed: -* displayFontT1, displayFontTT: replaced with fontFile -* displayNamedCIDFontT1, displayNamedCIDFontTT: replaced with fontFile -* displayCIDFontT1, displayCIDFontTT: replaced with fontFileCC -* psFont: replaced with psResidentFont -* psNamedFont16: replaced with psResidentFont16 -* psFont16: replaced with psResidentFontCC - -See the xpdfrc(5) man page for more information on the new commands. - -Pdftops will now embed external 16-bit fonts (configured with the -fontFileCC command) when the PDF file refers to a non-embedded font. -It does not do any subsetting (yet), so the resulting PS files will be -large. - - -Compiling Xpdf --------------- - -See the separate file, INSTALL. - - -Bugs ----- - -If you find a bug in Xpdf, i.e., if it prints an error message, -crashes, or incorrectly displays a document, and you don't see that -bug listed here, please send me email, with a pointer (URL, ftp site, -etc.) to the PDF file. - - -Acknowledgments ---------------- - -Thanks to: - -* Patrick Voigt for help with the remote server code. -* Patrick Moreau, Martin P.J.
