[poppler] Creating PDF with poppler ?

[Thomas Freitag]

Hi!

Don't use poppler to create / manipulate PDFs at all. The existing write 
routines (in PDFDoc) are completely buggy. I'll upload a patch and 
create a simple test programm extracting PDF pages as 1-page-PDF or 
merge several PDFs to one PDF during my next vacation, probably over 
Christmas.
