Build from source

Dependency

  • CMake, pkg-config
  • GNU Getopt
  • compilers support C++11, for example
  • GCC >= 4.4.6
  • I heard about successful build with Clang
  • poppler with xpdf header >= 0.20.0 (compile with --enable-xpdf-headers)
  • Install libpng (and headers) BEFORE you compile poppler if you want background images generated
  • Install poppler-data if your want CJK support
  • fontforge (with header files)
  • git version is recommended to avoid annoying compilation issues
  • [Optional] ttfautohint
  • run pdf2htmlEX with --external-hint-tool=ttfautohint to enable it
