Sorry for the very short post, but I thought this looked like it could be of interest.

The minimum requirement for Linux is Ubuntu 11.04?? That's a bit disappointing.
EDIT: and Python 3 is required. Ouch! Off to create a virtual machine. Last edited by DiapDealer; 07-12-2011 at 07:57 PM. |

Anyway, I tried installing PDFMasher on the newest Linux Mint (Xfce) and the debian package manager said all dependencies were resolved (Python 3 requirements), but alas, no love. It won't run. I'll have to look into building from source. But, I love an adventure. |

I really wish I could get this PDFMasher to work. I may have to break down and try it on my Windows virtual machine. |
