[pdftohtml] problems with adobe-japan1 fonts

[Matthew Yee-K. <li...@ye...>]

Hi there!

I am using pdftohtml to parse the following pdf:

http://www.asia-elearning.net/content/act2005eg/data/txt1.pdf#search=%22SCORM%202004%20handbook%22

I initially had some problems generating the html on my debian unstable
box, thus:

Error: Couldn't find cidToUnicode file for the 'Adobe-Japan1' collection
Error: Unknown character collection 'Adobe-Japan1'
Error: Unknown font tag 'C2_0'

I was able to fix these problems by installing the debian build of the
program and some other packages, cmap-adobe-japan1 xpdf-japanese. Still
my self built binary threw the errors, but the debian built one works
fine. How can I get my self built version to find these fonts?

The system that I really need to run the pdftohtml program on is running
red hat EL 3. I installed the program from a pdftohtml-0.36-1.1.el3.dag
rpm but it had the same problems with the pdf.How can I get the rpm
version to find these fonts? I have installed xpdf-japanese but maybe i
need more than this?

thanks!
