Any tool for any changing (not only in PDF) can '"break" the intention'. If you think that removinh optional contens is always bad purposes tool. It's not so. In my personal case I dropped the big red ARCHIVE from every page. But first page contains still contains warning about current state of document. This ARCHIVE obstructs me to read document. Often watermarks added to foreign documents. For example I have washing machine Candy Goy 1050 D. I very old model and I loose instruction for it. I go to Goole and download instruction on first link. I get https://i.imgur.com/EBy9voW.png. Here site added own ads to original document and I want to repair it. ___ Podofo-users mailing list Podofo-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/podofo-users
[Podofo-users] Any plans to relocate to github?
Hi guys. My question in title. I see that PoDoFo is not actively developing. Also there are many issues and patches. Many people use mailng list or tickets to send patches. Github more suitble for this tasks. It has perfect pull requests which allows not-members of PoDoFo to easy send patches. Also github allows to post binaries and own site. Initially my project Torrent File Editor partially was placed on SF. I used SF to share binary packages, source code archives and as homepage but source code and issue tracker was placed on Gtihub. But some time ago I fully moved to Github. And it works better than SF. I think for start on Github may be created mirror of PoDoFo SF repo and use it to apply patches. ___ Podofo-users mailing list Podofo-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/podofo-users
[Podofo-users] PoDoFoBrowser new life
Hi guys. As PoDoFoBrowser is not maintain through a very long time it forked on github https://github.com/KubaO/podofobrowser. Atm no changes UI or behaviour of application. All changes only to add support Qt5 and modern compilers. Also dropped STLPort. I believe it's dead and not used in modern OSes. So I ask to place link to github repo anywhere in PoDoFo readme. In really old SF PoDoFoBrowser can't be compiled with Qt5. ___ Podofo-users mailing list Podofo-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/podofo-users
Re: [Podofo-users] Indirect references
I tested it with PoDoFo::PdfReference ref00(0, 0); PoDoFo::PdfReference ref10(1, 0); PoDoFo::PdfReference ref11(1, 1); PoDoFo::PdfReference ref01(0, 1); cout << ref00.IsIndirect() << " -- " << ref00.ToString() << endl; cout << ref10.IsIndirect() << " -- " << ref10.ToString() << endl; cout << ref11.IsIndirect() << " -- " << ref11.ToString() << endl; cout << ref01.IsIndirect() << " -- " << ref01.ToString() << endl; Output: 0 -- 0 0 R 1 -- 1 0 R 1 -- 1 1 R 1 -- 0 1 R Looks like a bug. Also IsIndirect() function name sounds like 'direct references are exists'. But reference can point only to indirect object. So function should be renamed to IsValid(). And returns true when (objNumber > 0 && genNumber >= 0). ToString() should return string representation of PdfReference only for valid objects. For invalid it should returns empty strings.

[Podofo-users] Indirect references
Hi guys. I found a strange thing. PoDoFo defines indirect as 'A reference is indirect if object number and generation number are both not equal 0'. But PDF 1.7 specification defines the same in another way 'indirect object an object that is labeled with a positive integer object number followed by a non-negative integer generation number followed by obj and having endobj after it'. It different with generation number. In PoDoFo it can'b zero but in PDF specification it's OK. ___ Podofo-users mailing list Podofo-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/podofo-users
