PDF processing library in Erlang

Question

I am looking for a PDF processing library written in Erlang, but I was unable to find any yet. ErlGuten, the only library I found could only generate PDFs not process them. Anyone aware of such library?

Answer 1

I think your best option is to bridge with a 3rd party PDF library. Such as Adobe's own PDF Library SDK or another lesser known vendor.

See; http://www.adobe.com/devnet/pdf/library/

Answer 2

There is an open source library based on webkit: WKHTMLTOPDF
It generates PDF from an HTML template.

And here is small tutorial of how we are using it whith an Erlang backend.

Answer 3

Maybe Jinterface is the best way.Try to process PDFs with Java.
