minimal sample? about pymupdf

[rk700]

Hey,

I know it's too late. Sorry...But if you are still looking for demos, then this one https://github.com/rk700/rbook/blob/master/rbook/r_pdf.py might be helpful, although it's too large to be a demo.

Anyway, this module is out of date and I guess poppler is a better choice if you need some PDF library in python.

I was really interested in your bindings because poppler is much slower than mupdf.

ousia,
I am working on an example as you are looking for. Hopefully I can put it on the wiki pages later today.
As a heads up: based on Python 2.7.9 and wxWidgets / wxPython it will display a PDF with forward / backward scroll.

@ousia
If you are still interested, have a look at the PDF_display.py example in the demo folder. I tried to keep it simple - with obvious drawbacks onthe functionality side: However:

• starting it with a PDF-file parameter, it will display it in a scrollable window with buttons for previous / next and a field for direct jump to any page.
• rendering fully works at an amazing speed

NB:
There also is an example in wiki for pulling out a the document's outline in Python list format. For my reuqirements, this is more practical than a complicated journey through some dubious entry trees.

@JorjMcKie, many thanks for the sample.
