The additional package consists of encoding files for use with
<application>Poppler</application>. The encoding files are optional and
<application>Poppler</application> will automatically read them if they
are present. When installed, they enable
<application>Poppler</application> to render CJK and Cyrillic properly.

<title>Installation of Poppler</title>
<para>
Install <application>Poppler</application> by running the following
commands:
</para>
<screen><userinput>mkdir build &amp;&amp;
cd build &amp;&amp;
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr \
-DTESTDATADIR=$PWD/testfiles \
-DENABLE_UNSTABLE_API_ABI_HEADERS=ON \
<!-- -DENABLE_GTK_DOC=ON \
--> .. &amp;&amp;
make</userinput></screen>
<para>
In order to run the test suite, some testcases are needed and can
be obtained only from a git repository. The command to download
them is:
<command>git clone git://git.freedesktop.org/git/poppler/test testfiles</command>.
Then issue: <command>LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 make test</command>.
Only the Qt5 libraries are tested.
</para>

If you downloaded the additional encoding data package, install it by
issuing the following commands:

cd poppler-data-&poppler-data-version;</userinput></screen>

<para>
<parameter>-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release</parameter>: This switch is used
to apply a higher level of compiler optimizations.
</para>
<para>
<parameter>-DTESTDATADIR=$PWD/testfiles</parameter>: Tell the test
programs where the auxiliary files are located.

<para>
<parameter>-DENABLE_UNSTABLE_API_ABI_HEADERS=ON</parameter>: Install some old

<para>
<option>-DENABLE_GTK_DOC=ON</option>: Use this parameter if
GTK-Doc is installed and you wish to rebuild and install
the API documentation. If Python 2 is not installed, one script
needs to be changed: run <command>sed -i '1s/python/&amp;3/'
make-glib-api-docs</command> first.
</para>
<para>
<command>LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 make test</command>: Run the test suite.
The environment variable LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 is only needed if the
default locale does not include UTF-8.
