Only so far as the fact that forcing 72 dpi quality on the resultant HTML
output's graphics makes this tool pretty much unusable by anyone wanting to
pdf-to-html a PDF with graphics embedded.

I appreciate that not many people uses pdftohtml enough for poppler to care,
even if you are pretty much the only still maintained open source package that
provides pdf-to-html functionality. Still that would probably go under
Importance rather than Severity.


Anyway I have tried fixing it myself with some tests, but the magical constant
72 is distributed throughout the code (core poppler stuff), not just pdftohtml,
so I can see that this will be a non-trivial fix.

We've gone with pdftohtml.sourceforge.net for our deployment (and its not so
complete unicode rendering), it was quite a pity not to be able to use poppler.
