Is there any particular reason not to use prebuilt poppler binaries. You can get them from http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/dependencies/ quite old though) Or from the OpenSUSE BuildService. https://build.opensuse.org/ package/show?package=mingw32-poppler&project=windows%3Amingw%3Awin32 Currently the mingw project is undergoing a large (and slow) rebuild of all the packages, that may take a couple of days. The packages will appear in the download repo when ready: http://download.opensuse.org/ repositories/windows:/mingw:/win32/openSUSE_11.4/noarch/ I realize that I don't give a solution that provides a 0.16.3 build today, I'm sorry about that. You can mail me in private if you want me to send a buildservice package I have on my disk. > Building poppler with support for: > font configuration: win32 > splash output: yes > cairo output: no > abiword output: no > qt wrapper: no > qt4 wrapper: no > glib wrapper: no > use GDK: no > introspection: no > cpp wrapper: yes > use gtk-doc: no > use libjpeg: no > use libpng: no > use zlib: no > use libcurl: no > use libopenjpeg: no > use cms: no > command line utils: yes > > Warning: Using libjpeg is recommended > Warning: Using libopenjpeg is recommended > > Using the "poppler-render.exe" generated I get errors about fonts like > this: "poppler/error: Couldn't create a font for > 'Helvetica'poppler/error: Couldn't create a font for...

Not wanting to sound rude, but you don't seem to understand the basics of building software using the GNU autotools. In that case the above comment about prefering the ready-build packages seems relevant. In any case, my experience is that building using mingw on windows is a pain and that cross-compiling (using the same mingw32+autotools+gcc toolchain) on Linux is much easier, everything just works. That said, why don't you try building the dependencies yourself. It's simply a matter of uncompressing the source tarballs and do something like: PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR=/usr/local/min/lib/pkgconfig \ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mingw make make install > Thanks in advance > Stefano Maarten _______________________________________________ poppler mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/poppler
