Parse a PDF document and print 1

[Zhris]

I am beginning a new web project tomorrow for a client and I would like to use Perl to perform a few of the tasks.

I would like to be able to use a module which will read a PDF document then print the entire PDF document onto a webpage (pdf to html). The PDF file being read has been secured by .htaccess. so the user cannot open the PDF file directly in the browser.

I have tried numerous methods with no success at all and I would like to know which modules would be best suited to perform this task? I haven't yet found and hoping that PDF::Extract (

http://search.cpan.org/~nsharrock/PDF-Extract-3.04b/Extract.pm)

could be the solution?

Thank you,

Chris

Hi,

Have a look at:

HTML::HTMLDoc:DF

Which *may* help...

Also have a look at this non-perl solution

http://pdftohtml.sourceforge.net/

Thank you very much, I have looked at this module and it looks as if it does everything I need.
