| MacWinner | hi, i use mupdf to render a PDF into slide pngs. Then I use flexpaper to have a web viewer for those documents. I've tried PDF.js and it doesn't work well on mobile. Any recommendations on a better or more open source viewer than flexpaper? | 22:45.29 |
| | box.com has a nice looking viewer and service, but I don't want to be tied to them | 22:45.44 |
| sebras | MacWinner: hi! nice to hear that you are successful in using mupdf. | 22:47.31 |
| MacWinner | it works very well | 22:48.06 |
| sebras | MacWinner: I don't know about any better option to PDF.js, but then again I'm by no means an expert in the field of rendering PDFs in web browsers. | 22:51.29 |
| MacWinner | i think many of the viewers like on slideshare or box.com render PDFs into SVG potentially.. | 22:52.10 |
| | am hoping someone here can provide a little direction on a specific solution or something to google for | 22:52.43 |
| sebras | MacWinner: I'd doubt that any of the gs/mupdf developer are very active in this area though. | 22:53.57 |
| MacWinner | ahh.. that's good to know! | 22:54.18 |
| sebras | MacWinner: we're focusing on the mupdf rendering library and the (binary) sample applications showcasing it (for android, ios, linux, windows). | 22:55.12 |
| | MacWinner: but feel free to hang around and see if anyone can help you, and should you have any issues with mupdf itself we'd of cours appreciate a bug report over at bugs.ghostscript.com. :) | 22:56.19 |
| MacWinner | cool, will do! | 22:57.13 |
| Robin_Watts | It is possible that I know what rendering engine box.com uses. | 23:18.29 |
| | Not sure I can comment publicly though. | 23:18.37 |
