Subject: Wishlist Bug: Relative Paths Support?
Date: Wed, 4 Jul 2012 22:00:25 +0000
To: bug-Poppler [...] rt.cpan.org
From: Joseph Riad <joseph.samy.albert [...] gmail.com>
Hello, First off, I'd like to start by thanking you: your module turned out to be the missing piece of the puzzle for me. I was looking for a way to render PDFs within a Perl GUI and somebody mentioned Poppler and that led me here. Thanks! My bug report is really more of a "wishlist" bug, for when (and if) you have the time. I was wondering if Poppler::Document->new_from_file can be made to accept relative paths as well as URIs. I wasn't sure whether you did this by choice or you were constrained by the C library so I thought it wouldn't hurt to ask. Cheers, Joseph
