This should definitely have a homebrew formula. I could probably make one if you'd like, hopefully it would bring in some more devs to help with the project. I'm a little unsure about having a gcc >= 4.4.6 dependency, is there any way to get it to compile with clang, llvm-gcc, or gcc 4.2.1 (the stock compilers on apple systems)?

Almost every px related style has got insignificant trailing zeros. I understand the need of precision but it's just making html file bigger. So I'd propose a tiny function trail_zeros probably in util.cc which would convert.

100.0001000 -> 100.0001
10.00000000 -> 10
10.1 -> 10.1

I build the commit a28d9f8 on Gentoo with

gcc 4.6.3
puppler: 0.20.3

When i run it as
"pdf2htmlEX "

It didn't write anything in output html file, even with the example formula cheat pdf.

Can anyone explain how to get this code compiled ?

Char Cases in some fonts (probably CID) invalidly mapped. *p gives correct ascii code but when it goes to font->getNextChar then *u value is wrong in some cases.

Here is an example PDF http://dl.dropbox.com/u/75853179/med-9.pdf pay attention to the header section. "LEKSJON"

It looks like poppler bug to me.

Hi,

I am having issues compiling from source under Ubuntu 10.04. I get the following error when running cmake.

• checking for module 'poppler>=0.20.0'

  CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/FindPkgConfig.cmake:266 (message):

I have installed both libpoppler-dev and libpoppler7 packages as well as fontforge, libfontforge-dev, libfontforge1 but I cannot get this error to go away.

Has anyone encountered such issues whiling attempting to compile from source ?

Hello, this looks like a great conversion tool and I am excited to begin using it.

I am trying to compile from source on Fedora 17, using poppler 0.20.5 and the latest git release of libfontforge installed locally to /usr/local/*. It looks like cmake is having problems finding and linking these libraries now that they are installed somewhere else. What complicates things is that I have a fedora shipped poppler 0.18 installed under /usr/* that is used in other packages. It appears as if cmake is finding the wrong version of poppler.

Working on it...

At EOL a soft space should be added so that text selection works smoothly.

Hi,
This isn't an issue but a request. This is a great library and i'd like to be able to use part of the library for a project. Can anyone highlight the code used to parse the PDF, remove the text, but render the background image for each page?

Thanks,
Pat

On password protected documents it fails with
Error: Copying of text from this document is not allowed.

The original pdftohtml has the -nodrm switch which overrides this.

IMO it'd be nice to have some sort of conversion progress indicator e.g. 1/20 pages in stdout.

This is a very nice project. I've been dreaming of something like that for some time (see http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/18139/converting-latex-to-html5).

I've just tried converting a few documents and had some issues. For example, if you take Crocodoc's example document at http://personal.crocodoc.com/KhoD84, some characters are not rendered properly, and I get warnings during the conversion (using the master branch):

I just built it on Mint 14, AMD64 system

I get a seg fault

command line is

[code]
pdf2htmlEX --debug 1 --single-html 1 POR_Retro.pdf foo.html
[/code]

I ran this command:

$ pdf2htmlEX --single-html 0 "5430329-20110622004130.pdf" "../5430329-20110622004130.html"

external css/js/image files were generated in directory where pdf exists, however they should be generated in directory where .html exists. This caused loss of styles and images for output file.

A more better approach would be to allow user to specify relative css/js/image path so that these files could be saved in a separate folder and html in different folder.

I'd love to see support for an option to render pages respecting CropBox values.

There's a few PDFs I've tested using pdf2htmlEX that ultimately display extra content that would otherwise not be visible in standard PDF viewers. Happy to provide an example PDF.

cheers

HTML pages produced by pdf2htmlEX cannot be printed correctly (retaining the formats or correct paging)

This pages lists the reasons and difficulties.

This issue is left for discussing about possible solutions to it. Please read the wiki page above before leaving messages.

When conversion with --fit-width and --fit-height it seems to crash telling a comment "Abort trap".

Hi,

I found it's too show to process the entire pdf, because the pdf file is so large, can we let it just process the specific page? I don't find this option in the help.

Thanks

I've always wanted a way to convert pdf files (paper, tech books) to EPUB or MOBI.
It is not easy that I tried many tools with no vail.
I find pdf2htmlEX very promising for such purpose.
Current difficulties I met are:

1. The converted HTML contains strong layout markup, which blocks the easy conversion to EPUB/MOBI.
2. A single html file with image content in it is really large for htmp2epub like conversion tools.

Can you add some function to output reflowable html content with image files outside the html file, plus with possible separate html files for chapters and sections if the output file is large.
In this way, conversion tool like kindlegen or Calibre can deal with the output files.

1. Added PPA link with:
   add-apt-repository ppa:coolwanglu/pdf2htmlex
2. Updated with:
   apt-get update

Results in:
W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/coolwanglu/pdf2htmlex/ubuntu/dists/oneiric/main/binary-i386/Packages 404 Not Found

I saw the original document on the safari browser on my iPad and then I tried to see the html version. its very difficult/glitchy to scroll the document (Not as smooth as the pdf rendering engine in iOS.) Can it be made more smoother with zoom controls on pinch up and pinch down ?

I tried running pdf2htmlEX with the path of the pdf and it worked fine for Example

I navigated to

user0123$cd Users/user0123/Documents/
user0123$pdf2htmlEX pdftest.pdf
Preprocessing: .
Working: .
user0123$ls
pdftest.pdf
pdftest.html

the above works fine. BUT if I give

user0123$pdf2htmlEX /Users/user0123/Documents/pdftest.pdf
Preprocessing: .
Working: .
user0123$ls /Users/user0123/Documents/
user0123$

Hope the problem is clear but Is it only me getting this issue ??

Hey,
I found this repo very useful and started using it. I was able to convert a lot of pdf docs into html. But I came across a particular pdf file which is not properly getting converted into html.

The html file created is not properly getting formatted. I found that the font 'f2' that you are embedding into the html file is causing the trouble. When i removed the 'f2' font from the html, it got formatted.

The link to my input pdf file is https://www.dropbox.com/s/uauwa1be553rl7y/poster.pdf

The link to my html output is https://www.dropbox.com/s/2l6cz1bu6l0hckx/poster.html

Can you please look into this.

pdf2htmlEX做的很不错，不知道对中文支持的怎么样？

Right now font color other than white or black casts into white. It makes complete sense to preserve font colors. If you guys are not working on it yet then I can patch it.

1. fontforge, libspiro, pkx-config, poppler, gettext, and cmake installed on mac osx via homebrew.
2. gcc-4.7.1 installed with https://github.com/sol-prog/gcc-4.7-binary
3. commit 0e8a96f of pdf2html
4. output from cmake and make:

Can the pdf2htmlEX provide support for an annotated PDF ? for example the one in pdf.js of mozilla supports annotations.

check the example below in pdf.js viewer and it supports annotations. Can this be incorporated into pdf2htmlex ?

http://www.tcpdf.org/examples/example_036.pdf

When I convert some of my documents, the main text is rendered entirely with small caps.

There are no warnings during the conversion.

An example of document producing this behavior is this one: http://r.pinson.free.fr/tex/calvinisme_pocket.pdf

and the resulting HTML (using the exp branch as of this morning): http://r.pinson.free.fr/tex/calvinisme_pocket.html

I have compile pdf2htmlex in centos6, it loss line, table border.How can I solve it?

It must down html to local disk first.

when generator, I copy folder /tmp/pdf2htmlEX-iLPXAm to other my own folder. the folder contain image files.
for tiff, they are ok.
for png, all the size of them is 0KB.

Is't problem?

I am trying to cmake it on CentOS 5 and here's the output:

Thank you for pdf2htmlEX! Great product!

Text is overlapped and cut off on the edge, and colored boxes surrounding links are missing. Also, links can't be clicked.

It is very practical among graphic designers that they introduce whitepaces between words but these whitespaces are positional not meant to be visible. E.g. Familien can be set as Fa mil ien. Fortunatly, pdf2htmlEX take care of this while rendering but it contains spaces in HTML code, which makes is less usable when you copy text since you copy Fa mil ien.

Here is an example pdf.

BTW crocodoc also have this issue but scribd does it correctly.

Hello!
First of all, thank you for your efforts in developing this brilliant peace of software. You have done amazing work here! Therefore I am developing a web project based on this converter and will definitely donate you if it will turn out to be successful :)

But as for web project I need to be able to convert pdf documents to html while fitting every page of pdf to the same width eg. 960px. Could you please add such an option to your program?

This is not intended as a feature request but first as a question about the potential of pdf2htmlex. I do not understand how the project works so it is hard for me to know if what I imagine is easy or hard.

Introduction

LaTeX is such an important software because it creates a typeset output, meaning that you get ultimate control over the appearance and design of your document. This involves huge numbers of special packages for advanced font features, line breaking and justification, microtypography, complex diagrams, mathematics and so much more.

LaTeX outputs to PDF, which is a great simulation of physical paper documents, and the pdf2htmlex tool is, as far as I can see, revolutionary because it provides for the first time the possibility of fine-grained professional control of the layout and design of a html document.

Warning

When speaking of pdf2htmlex in connection with latex, I often hear people talking about other latex to html converters -- these only convert latex markup to html and have nothing to do with what is discussed above. pdf2htmlex converts the latex output to html, which is far, far different.

Question

The potential functionality and richness of electronic documents in the browser goes far beyond what is possible with PDF. I am not talking about a radical departure from the functionality of PDF -- I imagine the document might look quite similar to a PDF document, but with a limited number of very versatile features, such as:

• Folding of text: hiding parts of the document until further details are desired
• Sophisticated linking/citing between (parts of) documents
• Nonlinear/hierarchical document structure (for example, there could be two page numbers (n,m), where you increase n to progress to the end and you increase m to gain more detail)
• including media such as animation/tutorials
• including comments via linked repository...

Now, I can imagine that some of these tools could be implemented using javascript, for example using jquery or something like this.

The real question is this: do you think it is possible to invent a latex package which introduces some new functionality into the markup, which produces a PDF in such a way so that a tool like pdf2html would take the PDF with the embedded "hooks" and produce an electronic document with the added functionality?

I am asking you to speculate about what the best way to do this might be.

Output html without any css, keep the logical structure only, so result file has only html tags.

The result will not be something comparable to the original pdf, but a much better starting point for processing the file further.

So would you please implement a feature for --html-only or --no-css ?

Thanks in advance!

I know this request is counter-intuitive since the strength of pdf2htmlex currently is a faithful representation of the original pdf. But I have never seen a solution of converting pdf to clean html files. All solution tries to throw in as many style tags as possible. All the resulting files are not good for transforming to other formats or for re-editing.

Given pdf2htmlex is actively developed, I would like to see it implements this feature first.

Hello Wang,
Appreciate the work you are doing, but i am having some issue when i execute pdftohtmex for conversion, i gets a segfault.
gdb output as follow

[Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]
Using host libthread_db library "/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libthread_db.so.1".
Preprocessing: ...................
Working:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

590 ../sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strcpy-sse2-unaligned.S: No such file or directory.

Let me know if i am missing something or what?

Link for pdf with a seg fault issue is https://www.dropbox.com/s/2k21wamp6rzomfs/optimize.pdf

I have checked the sample pdf "geneve_1564.pdf" you provided and it worked

PDF was designed for printing, and it has limited support with devices with different sizes. But HTML is in another direction, which actually originates from a reflowable plain text stream.

This page shows the difficulties of recognizing and producing reflowable text for pdf2htmlEX. But maybe we can focus on the simplest cases with proper parameters for users.

This issue is created and left for discussion about this feature, please read the wiki page above before leaving message here.

Word-spacing and letter-spacing should use em instead of pixel.

Text could be actually hidden due to clip path.

It is not possible to handle this with the current design, where we have only a text layer and a background image layer.

SVG should be a solution.

[Update]
Possible solution
For each character, detect if it is inside the clipping region

• completely inside: display as normal
• completely outside: ignore them in the output
• partial: render as image with a hidden text layer.

The clip-path CSS property

Hello wang,

First of all let me thank you for this wonderful repository. I have been using this for a while to convert a lot of my pdf documents into html. I have tested this with some 1000 to 2000 documents and it gave me good results excepts for a couple of pdfs. Listed below are the pdfs that didn't get converted as expected. Hope you will look into it. Once again thanks for this great repository.
