| Robin_Watts | bencc: Use Mupdf. | 00:15.49 |
| bencc | Robin_Watts: how? | 00:46.30 |
| | I've installed the latest from ubuntu ppa | 00:46.46 |
| Robin_Watts | bencc: That's probably old. | 00:47.18 |
| | Use the latest version from git. | 00:47.23 |
| | then: mutool draw -o out%d.svg in.pdf | 00:47.42 |
| bencc | mutool convert -F svg test.pdf | 00:47.53 |
| | this is the command? | 00:47.56 |
| | error: unknown output document format: svg | 00:48.03 |
| | the ppa has 1.10a-0build1~ubuntu16.04 | 00:48.45 |
| | isn't it the latest? | 00:48.49 |
| | https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuhandbook1/+archive/ubuntu/apps | 00:48.52 |
| | Robin_Watts: do I need to use mupdf or mutool? | 00:49.05 |
| Robin_Watts | mutool is part of the mupdf distro. | 00:49.42 |
| bencc | is this the command I need? | 00:49.58 |
| | mutool convert -F svg test.pdf | 00:49.59 |
| Robin_Watts | mupdf is the viewer. mutool is the swiss army knife. | 00:50.01 |
| | No. | 00:50.05 |
| bencc | what command I need? | 00:50.13 |
| Robin_Watts | The one I gave above :) | 00:50.22 |
| bencc | sorry, didn't see it | 00:50.37 |
| | trying | 00:50.38 |
| Robin_Watts | mutool draw -o out%d.svg in.pdf | 00:50.46 |
| bencc | works great | 00:51.56 |
| | much better result than poppler | 00:52.03 |
| | 1.10a is the latest? | 00:52.17 |
| | why draw instead of convert? | 00:53.15 |
| Robin_Watts | 1.10a is the latest for the next month or so. | 00:54.45 |
| | draw and convert do different things, I believe. bedtime for me. night. | 00:55.00 |
| bencc | thanks | 00:55.45 |
| | I just need to see how to build from source now | 00:56.01 |
| | can't trust third party ubuntu ppa | 00:56.09 |
| | good night | 00:56.11 |
| araxe | hi i have a problem in compiling the project WinRT solution, DLL and sample application for MuPDF, this is the error: LNK1181 can not open input file '../../../ghostpdl/bin/gsdll64.lib', I downloaded and install Ghostscript 9.20 for Windows (64-bit). any suggestions? | 11:21.55 |
| kens | If you want to build MuPDF you do not need Ghostscript. This sounds like you are instead trying to build GSView 6 | 11:22.54 |
| | As far as I'm aware there is currently no build for WinRT of MuPDF (though I'm not a MuPDF develoepr so I may be incorrect) | 11:23.28 |
| | Downloading and installing Ghostscript won't help you, if you want to build GSView you will also need the Ghostscript source code. | 11:23.49 |
| araxe | there is a recent project for WinRT, I followed the instructions but I get the following problem, I thought of Ghostscript library. because requires gsdll64.lib '. | 11:26.33 |
| kens | ANd MuPDF does not require Ghostscript, which is why I suspect you are in fact trying to build GSView, which *does* require Ghostscript (as well as MuPDF) and ahas a WinRT project. | 11:27.24 |
| | Where did you get the instructions you are following ? | 11:27.42 |
| araxe | http://git.ghostscript.com/?p=mupdf-winrt.git;a=tree readme.txt | 11:28.14 |
| kens | Well, then I'm forced to conclude someone added a WinRT project to MuPDF< but made a mistake. | 11:28.57 |
| | I suggest you either hang around, or watch the logs. The developers sometimes come online during the weekend, but your best bet is to be here on Monday morning US Pacific time. | 11:29.36 |
| | And ask Michael Vrhel, most likely he's added the build | 11:29.58 |
| | Of course you can slo edit the solution yourself, and remove ghostpdl64.lib | 11:30.41 |
| | err gsdll64.lib I mean | 11:30.53 |
| kens | heads for the wimming pool.... | 11:32.49 |
| chrisl | araxe: There is a problem with VS2015's importing of the VS2005 project for mupdf which appears to cause a number of configurations to be merged/intermingled. The missing gs library suggests that it's including the "gproof" configuration. Note that the WinRT stuff is literally *days* old, so is probably not exactly stabilized yet | 11:35.04 |
| araxe | the last update of http://git.ghostscript.com/?p=mupdf-winrt.git;a=tree was 2 days ago | 11:36.32 |
| chrisl | Well, that is *days* old - and note: that "update" is also the first commit, so.... not exactly mature | 11:43.15 |
| araxe | ok thank you | 11:59.19 |
| Diemex | I still haven't been able to compile the mini pdf app -.- | 12:05.24 |
| | I get this when I run make on my Ubuntu vm: http://pastebin.com/YPbafgkk | 12:28.30 |

| | hello | 16:14.38 |
| ghostbot | Welcome to #ghostscript, the channel for Ghostscript and MuPDF. If you have a question, please ask it, don't ask to ask it. Do be prepared to wait for a reply as devs will check the logs and reply when they come on line. | 16:14.38 |
| johndoe__ | | 16:16.16 |
| kens | johndoe__ for the logs. I believe that when mutool convert says that colorspace means the colorspace it will *render* to, it means exactly that, render to a bitmap. | 17:12.08 |
| | Since PDF isn't a simple bitmap format, it does not (as far as I'm aware) produce a grayscale PDF file. If you want that, use Ghostscript and the pdfwrite device. | 17:12.39 |
