Good afternoon,
I'm completing a project for analysing and displaying PDFs.
The project will have a web-frontend implemented in Wt.
The features (although not limited to this) is to:
• Allow users to upload PDFs
• PDFs are analysed by the system, gathering information on headers,
footers Table
Hi Alec,
The features (although not limited to this) is to:
• Allow users to upload PDFs
• PDFs are analysed by the system, gathering information on headers,
footers Table of Contents using my custom algorithms
Analysis of PDF files is be possible with PoDoFo. Access to the table
of contents
Thanks for the speedy response.
No need to worry about the web-frontend, seems like Wt already has
libraries which implement that functionality.
The PDF file header can be analysed with PoDoFo. PoDoFo does not give
you direct access to headers and footers on pages in the PDF. This
will require
Wt doesn't support converting a PDF-HTML, so how would you display the
PDF in the browser w/o a client-side plugin.
Since a PDF doesn't have a concept of a page header or page footer,
you will need to extract all the content on the page (or pages) and make
some heuristic determination about what
Thanks, I'm aware that I need to do this analysis myself.
Which PoDoFo methods should I use for this analysis + which PoDoFo
methods should I use to hyperlink-ify the ToC?
(and is PoDoFo the best library for this purpose?)

From that page: (emphasis mine)
