Doppler - D bindings for the Poppler PDF rendering library

This library provides a D wrapper around the Poppler PDF rendering library (poppler-23.07.0). The current functionality is limited to displaying PDF documents loaded from a file.

No actual PDF generating abilities have been wrapped yet, but I am happy to add them here if requested.

The current functionality encloses:

• Document

static Document loadFromFile(string fileName, string password = "");

int getNPages();

Page getPage(int index);

• Page

void getSize(out double width, out double height);

void render(Context context);

void renderForPrinting(Context context);

ImageSurface getImage(int imageId);
