The Xpdf project +also includes a PDF text extractor, PDF-to-PostScript converter, and +various other utilities. + +Xpdf uses the Qt toolkit and runs on Linux and Windows. The +non-graphical components (pdftops, pdftotext, etc.) run on Linux, +Unix, Windows, MacOSX, and pretty much any other system with a decent +C++ compiler. + +4.04 is primarily a bug fix release. There are some new features: + +* XpdfReader improvements: + - Implemented selection extension via shift-click, and word/line + selection via double/triple click. + - Added default bindings for ctrl-mousewheel-up/down to zoom in/out. + - Added a help menu item that shows all of the key bindings. + +* Various new command line options for pdftotext, pdftohtml, pdftoppm, + pdftopng, and xpdf. + +See the `CHANGES' file for a complete list of changes. + +Source (C++ and C) is available, and it should be fairly easy to +compile for Linux and Windows. + +More information, source code, and precompiled binaries are on the +xpdf web page: + + http://www.xpdfreader.com/ + +For information on commercial licensing and consulting, please see the +Glyph & Cog web site: + + http://www.glyphandcog.com/ |
