The standard order you refer to is true in Linux installation of Perl (or in own-compiled installations of perl)
As I told you, I have Activeperl on Windows XP v5.10.0 build 1003 285500; as you can see also in this post http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=704795
in Activeperl the order of the content of @INC is:
C:\>perl -le "print for @INC"
C:/Perl/site/lib
C:/Perl/lib

ANOTHER IMPORTANT UPDATE TO THE PROBLEM WITH CAM-PDF
I've asked advice to the CAM-PDF author and he put me on the right way by saying that this error with CAM-PDF:
Failed to open filter FlateDecode (Text::PDF::FlateDecode)
Unrecognized type in parseAny:
1 £ý¢-«ý-_ØÎ_O_:÷n£Õ-¦ê¦H¸l-0á×ÁÄ[éåtu!-...
... is FAULT of Compress::Zlib module.
Actually I had Compress::Zlib installed, in spite of it not being a dependency of CAM-PDF.
I installed Compress::Zlib since it was a dependency of PDF-API2 module, another module to handle pdf files, but I've never been able to use PDF-API2 due to some errors.
So I've tried to uninstall PDF-API2 and Compress::Zlib and, magic, THE ERROR WITH CAM-PDF HAS DISAPPEARED AND EVERYTHING WORKS FINE.

I am a novice perl user. I'm confused. I've downloaded CAM-PDF-1.52 and Crypt-RC4-2.02. I still get the noted error message about ThateDecode. So I downloaded Text-PDF-0.29 which has a dependency for IO-Compress-2.027. I downloaded the dependencies for IO-Compress-2.027 as well.
I still get the error. This is a huge brick wall for me and I'd appreciate any help in climbing over it.
The perl script that I downloaded to read the text of the PDF is:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use CAM::PDF; # Name of the Perl Module
use CAM::PDF::Content; # Name of the Perl Module
my $file_name = shift;
my @lines;
my $pdf = CAM::PDF->new($file_name);
for my $page (1 .. $pdf->numPages()) {
my $text = $pdf->getPageText($page);
@lines = split (/\n/, $text);
foreach (@lines) {
print "$_\n";
}
}
Currently Compress::Zlib is uninstalled.
Thanks,
Jim
