Hi again, I'm replying to your mail via debian-user list since there is something wrong with your nameserver right now and the mailer fails due to it.
Here is the original message: Well, the only explanation I have is that we have different versions of xpdf and my verson has pdftotext and your version does not. I'm using the unstable distribution and you perhaps have stable installed. See http://www.aimnet.com/¯derekn/xpdf/ for the authors xpdf pages. There he has 'getting xpdf' page which has a link to a binary executable (xpdf-0.7-linux2.0-elf.tar.gz) for the 0.7 version. The binary version is linked against libc5 and seems to have pdftotext in it. Anyways, here is the info about the xpdf package I have installed. % dpkg --status xpdf Package: xpdf Status: install ok installed Priority: optional Section: non-free/text Installed-Size: 590 Maintainer: Dirk Eddelbuettel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Version: 0.7-3 Provides: pdf-viewer, postscript-preview Depends: libc6, xlib6g (>= 3.3-5), xpm4g (>= 3.4j-0), mime-support (>= 2.01-1) Description: Portable Document Format viewer for X11 xpdf is a viewer for Portable Document Format (PDF) files. (These are sometimes called 'Acrobat' files after the name of Adobe's PDF software.) xpdf is designed to be small and efficient. It does not use the Motif or Xt libraries. It uses standard X fonts. A program for conversion from pdf into ps, pdftops, is also included. % dpkg --listfiles xpdf /. /usr /usr/doc /usr/doc/xpdf /usr/doc/xpdf/changelog.Debian.gz /usr/doc/xpdf/copyright /usr/doc/xpdf/README.gz /usr/doc/xpdf/changelog.gz /usr/X11R6 /usr/X11R6/bin /usr/X11R6/bin/xpdf /usr/X11R6/man /usr/X11R6/man/man1 /usr/X11R6/man/man1/xpdf.1x.gz /usr/bin /usr/bin/pdftops /usr/bin/pdftotext /usr/man /usr/man/man1 /usr/man/man1/pdftops.1.gz /usr/man/man1/pdftotext.1.gz /usr/lib /usr/lib/menu /usr/lib/menu/xpdf I hope this helps, // Heikki -- Heikki Vatiainen * [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tampere University of Technology * Tampere, Finland -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
