The PoDoFoBrowser software is a user-friendly Qt application that lets you easily browse objects within a PDF file and modify their keys with ease.
One of the fantastic features of PoDoFoBrowser is that it has been ported to VC++ on MS Windows, making it more compatible with different systems. The documentation has been improved, and it is now almost complete. The underline color of text elements was fixed to enhance the quality of the output. The PdfParser now works with updated PDF files, making it even more functional.
Another significant improvement to the software is how it loads object streams and dictionaries from the PDF files. This enhancement improves the parsing speed of the software greatly. The developers also introduced a PdfReference class and refactored the PdfVariant. Additionally, PdfFilters are now cached, and they work with extra DecodeParms dictionaries.
The ImageExtractor tool has also been improved, along with many other fixes. The software requires PoDoFo and Qt3 to function, which are readily available on most systems.
The latest release of PoDoFoBrowser boasts of several new features that make it even more versatile. It now supports embedded files and interactive forms, including creation and filling. The support for ExtGStates when drawing and named destinations have also been added. The PdfFilter interface has been greatly improved, making it faster, and a PdfStreamedDocument has been added to streamline document streaming.
Finally, the developers have switched to CMake as the new build system, which enhances its compatibility with other systems. Also, the XRef streams have been fixed to further improve the software's performance. Overall, PoDoFoBrowser is a great tool for exploring and modifying PDF files' internal structure.
