Re: [orca-list] Recommendation of PDF reader

[Edhoari Setiyoso <edhoari s gmail com>]

Hi Didier,

I tried pandoc and it cannot convert from PDF to html (or am I missing
something?)

Here's the output I get when converting from pdf docs

convert $> pandoc -v
pandoc 2.2.1
Compiled with pandoc-types 1.17.5.1, texmath 0.11.1, skylighting 0.7.5

convert $> pandoc Haltermanpythonbook.pdf  -s -o output.html

Pandoc can convert to PDF, but not from PDF.
convert $> 


Best Regards
