mupdf is a lightweight PDF, CBZ, and XPS viewer and toolkit.
The renderer in MuPDF is tailored for high quality anti-aliased graphics.
MuPDF renders text with metrics and spacing accurate to within fractions of
a pixel for the highest fidelity in reproducing the look of a printed page
on screen.
MuPDF is also small, fast, and yet complete. It supports PDF 1.7 with
transparency, encryption, hyperlinks, annotations, searching and more. It
also reads XPS and OpenXPS documents. MuPDF is written modularly, so
features can be added on by integrators if they so desire.
Notes:
1. It's no longer possible to build mupdf without JavaScript support.
2. Three mupdf executables are installed in /usr/bin. mupdf-x11 is the
regular PDF viewer, and mupdf-x11-curl has support for fetching remote
resources from the network (which may be considered a security risk).
mupdf-gl uses OpenGL for rendering (and doesn't support curl).
3. By default, mupdf is now built as shared libraries. If for some
reason you need static libs instead, build with STATIC=yes in the
script's environment. See README_shared.txt for more information.
