Need to have HTML renderer

  1. [ ] @StayerX: Look at https://github.com/project-renard/curie/pull/65 to see how to use Webkit in Gtk3.
  2. [ ] @StayerX: Load a demo HTML file into the WebView.
  3. [ ] @zmughal: Update the pdf2htmlEX distribution and record a video of it.
  4. [ ] @StayerX: Run pdf2HTMLex on the PDF and use that HTML in the WebView.

@StayerX any progress on the first couple steps of this?

@StayerX, if you have time, could you try installing the Alien::pdf2htmlEX module:

cpanm --verbose Alien::pdf2htmlEX
