Goal

Create a PDF viewer to consult online an ebook library.

Existing softwares in PHP

Online viewer for PDF, PostScript and Word
Writing a Web-based PDF Viewer
Originally I started from parts of this one which was more "educational"

Yet another one

Convert documents from online library, not from user selection/upload
No limitation on nr of pages or filesize
No overhead of intensive MySql logging
AJAX style with personal css instead of frames
CSS inspired from LAYOUT TECHNIQUES: 3 columns, the holy grail
Persistant cache (as set of documents is fixed) while limited in size
Conversion on demand by batches of 10 pages in order to support large documents
Smoother zooming
Rotation support
Text mode support (much faster and allows copy/paste)
Trim support (remove blank area around the generated document)

Todo

center text mode
text mode robust to page content (php code,...)
Search in document
Search in all documents (coupled with sth like http://swish-e.org ?)
