Compression not working in Libharu

[Siddharth Mittal]

The compression is not working and the value returend by the following line is 4129. The documentation about errors says that 4129 means "Invalid value set for compression".

HPDF_STATUS Status = HPDF_SetCompressionMode(pdf, HPDF_COMP_ALL);

My code looks like follwoing:

            //Create the PDF
            HPDF_Doc pdf = HPDF_New(error_handler, NULL);
            if (!pdf) 
                return 0;
            HPDF_STATUS Status = HPDF_SetCompressionMode(pdf, HPDF_COMP_ALL);
            //HPDF_STATUS Status = HPDF_SetCompressionMode(pdf, HPDF_COMP_IMAGE);

If you step into the code, you will see you are getting the error because the ZLIB compression library was not compiled into your copy of HaruPDF.

First: comment out this line in ..\win32\include\hpdf_config.h:

/* zlib is not available */
//#define LIBHPDF_HAVE_NOZLIB

Second: find, download and unzip the ZLIB code. You can obtain the source from the following Website:

http://www.zlib.net/

Third: tell HaruPDF where it can find the ZLIB code, and recompile HaruPDF.

You should now be able to use compression.

Ain't Open Source grand?
