Re: [poppler] Creating PDF with poppler ?

[Thomas Freitag]

FWIW, pdfextract and pdfmerge don't work if the or one of the PDFs are encrypted. Because they don't look at it, the resulting PDF(s) become unreadable.

How I promised long time ago, here now a patch for the poppler writing routines and some new helper function, together with two small sample programs using them. In merging the writer routines I encountered, that some of the problems I found are solved in the meantime. So, where they are solved, I left the code as it is, but manually merging could always cause new problems. The main changes beside solving some smaller problems are that I make the most writer routines static, and that I add a new parameter numoffset. The reason for this is the small sample program pdfmerge, which merges several PDF to one bigger PDF, so there I have no PDFDoc object for the resulting PDF, and I have to change the num values of each single PDF. The other small sample program I add is to do the other way round: Extract one or more pages from a multi page PDF to several one page PDFs. I'm not an expert in configure, so I just attach the single main cc's. Building the programs is simular topdftotext, they need parseargs and the poppler library. So I would appreciate any help on this. I think the patch together with the samples could make it easier to file samples for bugs, i.e. extracting only the page or pages which causes a regression, or merge several sample PDFs which causing regressions. What are You thinking about it? Helpful or not?
