Customize Oxygen XML Editor to Render PDF Images (Experimental Support)
Oxygen XML Editor provides experimental support for PDF images using the Apache PDFBox library.
To enable the rendering of PDF images in Author mode, follow this procedure:
- Go to http://pdfbox.apache.org/downloads.html and download the pre-built PDFBox standalone binary JAR files:
pdfbox-2.0.3.jar,fontbox-2.0.3.jar, andxmpbox-2.0.3.jar. Alternatively, you can use the1.8.12version of these files, as they have been tested and work properly.Note
It is not recommended to usepdfbox-app-2.0.3.jarfile instead of the three specified files because it contains additional classes that may cause conflicts elsewhere in Oxygen XML Editor. - Create a subfolder called
pdfImageJarsin the[OXYGEN_INSTALL_DIR]\libdirectory. - Copy the downloaded JAR libraries to that newly created subfolder.
- Restart the application.
