Re^2: PDF content and visuals testing best practices

Just reposting a PM from andreas1234567 for reference:

I have trouble running pdftohtml.exe. It complains "freetype.dll" is missing (even though it *is* present in DLL dir)

Depending which version of pdftohtml.exe (Dynamic vs Static) you run, you may need the following dlls:

These DLLs are found in the DLLs/ directory under Calibre Portable/Calibre/. You can do 1 of two things:

(Temporarily) add the path to the DLL directory to $ENV{PATH} in your script:

{
    local $ENV{PATH} = $ENV{PATH}.";<PATH TO DLLs>;"
    system "pdftohtml.exe", "-xml", "<PDF FILE>";
}

This did the trick for me: `set EXEPATH=C:\Users\%USERNAME%\Calibre Portable\Calibre set PATH=%PATH%;%EXEPATH%\DLLS` [download] Thanks! -- No matter how great and destructive your problems may seem now, remember, you've probably only seen the tip of them. [1]	[reply] [d/l]
