Hi,
i wanted to use the mupdf component (made by Malcolm Poole inspired by Blestans code) in both worlds... win/linux on i386 system.
The good news: I get it run on Windows system (laz 1.4.2)
This is the very best i did found, to only display pdf very, very fast!The bad news is, that i've big problems on linux system. (kubuntu i386)
Laz was at 1.2.6, so i decided to update first to 1.4.2 --> works
Downloaded the mupdf 1.2 Sources and fixed the Makefile for getting the libfitz.so.1.0 --> done
copied the libfitz.so.1.0 to /usr/lib
Installed the mupdflaz component into lazarus -> laz compiled the component without error
Laz want's to rebuild and restart --> so far so good
After Restart from laz, there is not one letter to see on Ide window! ... nothing, no font.
Ide works, the PDF Icon from mupdf is unter tab "additional"... but no fonts to see...
this is bad, as i'm not able to work with the ide in "blind mode"
If you want to test it, first make a copy of /home/[USER]/.lazarus
( to fix this problem, delete /home/[USER]/.lazarus/bin/lazarus and rename /home/[USER]/.lazarus/bin/lazarus.old to lazarus)
Download Component and Linux lib (4,7MB) any idea?
best, michael
