Dear All

I do not know linux system well, so it might be very stupid question.

I think iliad need at least three new functions in ipdf.
A. keyword search.
B. Show TOC from bookmarks in pdf.
C. Show a logical page number.
( http://itext.ugent.be/library/com/lo...PageLabels.pdf )

When I search google a little bit, it is a little easy to add these functions if we use a recent version of poppler.

So I just to want to know the reason why people feel some difficulty in porting a recent poppler to iliad.

And what is the exact version of poppler in iliad?

Thanks.
