Last change on this file since 2348 was 2348, checked in by jrm21, 23 years ago

Added some code from version 0.31 to our code (based on version 0.22).
Now much faster, doesn't "crash" on bitmapped-font (bitmap-fonted?) PDF files,
although it will create empty html files for them. Also attempt to get
images placed in the right place on the page, and attempt to layout the html
text in a similar manner to where it was on the pdf page.

4The version is based on version 0.22, with some code included from
5version 0.31. It has been modified for Greenstone use, particularly
6the file xpdf/HtmlOutputDev.cc, in an attempt to get text and images
7in roughly the right place without using javascript or multiple pages.
