Feature request: pdffonts-like functionality #17

Closed ghost closed 9 years ago

Just that - being able to get a list of linked, embedded fonts and some technical details about them. I submitted this upstream too (PDFium plain...I may or may not submit it to PDF.js also) but figure the more eyes on it who might be interested, the better.

Does this mean this feature is not yet available in pdfium? This project is just wrapper around pdfium and only exposes functionality that is available in the stock pdfium project.

Ah, I see I should have looked a little closer; I assumed your project was a fork. A wrapper would make just as much / more sense for a desktop application. I do not believe this feature is in PDFium, although I may not be seeing the latest version if it updates with Chromium (I am running Debian stable, and it will take Jessie becoming the new stable in a few weeks for the Chromium update pipeline to start updating again). Honestly, I would be surprised if it was, it is kind of an unconventional feature for PDF viewers, but in my mind a light-weight, perhaps easy to implement, and useful one.

That makes sense.
