the cairo-based simple PDF import extension has been in trunk for a while (well, for a week or so :) ). Now I have committed a preliminary version of the native libpoppler-based one to trunk (you can activate it by uncommenting the line Internal::PdfInput::init() in src/extension/init.cpp).
Hi,
I see poppler >=0.5.5 is required. Is there a important reason why 0.5.4 won't be enough? As always it's a matter of dependencies: Mac OS X packaging system comes with poppler 0.5.4 and adding a newer by hand is not as good and easy as getting it from there. I'll try to get it updated in the packaging system though. We'll see if they are receptive.
As for the cairo-based import, is there something special to do to get it? I have cairo 1.4.6 and it works perfectly for the PDF export (I mean, as well as on other systems) but I don't have any PDF import in the Open/Import dialogs.
Thanks in advance. Cheers,
