Sorry for my short post but yesterday i was very busy.
I takled to the guys in the poppler irc channel
and they told me to use splash backend rather than arthur backend.
i didn't compile the splash backend in my poppler build, so the Qt4 demo
didn't work either.
But now I'm using the splash backend and everthing is fine.
The QImage is containing the text and the pictures.
But theres another issu i want to mention, to render a vektorgraphic
would be much better than rendering an
image.
