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 ?)
