PDF bdpO Access information in a PDF file ANTRO
The PDF library is a proposed library for access the information
contained inside a PDF file. PDF stands for Portable Document Format and is
a standard proposed by Adobe ( See http://www.adobe.com/ for more details ) .
Install "as usual" with:
perl Makefile.PL
make
make install
Then, you can try the scripts in the example directory that tests
if a file is a PDF ( not looking at the .pdf extension :-), the PDF
version used to write them, their number of pages and the various
Info ( Author, Creation date, etc. ).
PREREQUISITES:
A Perl distribution :-)
NEWS:
Added support for the iso latin1 chars in the Getinfo ( Thanks to Thomas
Drillich for the patch )
For the people that have trouble with the "standard" install procedure under
wintel platform,
now is available a quick and dirty install.bat in the main directory
AVAILABILITY:
The library is available at
and at all CPAN mirror
Enjoy
Antonio "Antro" Rosella
