Xpdf-intl

The Xpdf-intl is an updated version of Xpdf with enhanced localization support through the integration of gettext. As a viewer for Portable Document Format (PDF) files, it provides exceptional convenience to users who prefer to navigate through documents in their native language. With ongoing translations into Dutch, French, Spanish, Turkish, and more, the software promises to be inclusive of a global audience. As a user, you can contribute to this initiative by participating in the translation of Xpdf into your preferred language.

Installation of Xpdf-intl on your system requires compilation with an ANSI C++ compiler such as gcc. The following libraries must also be present for full functionality: motif or lesstif and freetype 2. The software can be easily installed on most systems using the configuration commands provided, including "./configure --prefix=/usr --with-freetype2-includes=/usr/include/freetype2/", "make", and "make install". For more information on the installation process, refer to the INSTALL file.

Notable improvements in this release include the integration of patches to address a potential security vulnerability and the addition of new translations. The primary program to be used when using Xpdf is "xpdf". Overall, Xpdf-intl is a solid software option that caters to an international audience with its localization capabilities.
