2.16 Ado be P DF L ibr a ry Ins ta ll a ti on Gui de UNIX Installation Unix installations will typically contain both Adobe PDF Library and DLI release files in one .tar file. After downloading via ftp or copying the release from CD-ROM (depending on how you receive your software from Datalogics), select a high-level location for unpacking the release: e.g. /var, /opt, /var/ Datalogics or /opt/Datalogics. The release will unpack itself into directory trees under the current location.
Installing the PDF Library and DLI 3 Unpack each of the resulting .tar files in turn: 4 Subsidiary directories will be created as the unpacking process proceeds: 2.
2.18 Ado be P DF L ibr a ry Ins ta ll a ti on Gui de 5 After unpacking the last .tar file, the directories and subdirectories should be fully populated: 6 Under the /var/Datalogics/APDFL6.1.0 (or similar) branch that was just created, locate the *.mak file (whichever one is appropriate for your platform) within /APDFL6.1.
Installing the PDF Library and DLI 7 Under the /var/Datalogics/APDFL6.1.0/Samples/utils (or similar) branch that you just created, locate and edit the appropriate *.mak file for your platform to point to the correct gcc and g++ locations, to ensure that make procedures will build correctly: 8 Do the same local modifications within /var/Datalogics/DLI/Samples/All to update gcc and g++ references in makefile.
2.20 Ado be P DF L ibr a ry Ins ta ll a ti on Gui de 9 Finally, set the environment variables appropriately (as described in the next chapter): (See the appropriate listings for your platform in the section “Setting Environment Variables” on page 3.6) 10 At this point you should be able to build all samples by issuing a gmake command: 11 To install the documentation files on a Windows machine, see “Documentation Unpacking” on page 2.22.
Installing the PDF Library and DLI DLI Installation Procedure NOTE: In most cases, the DLI Installation procedures are part of the Adobe PDF Library installation process. You may only need to follow these steps if you are installing a DLI update separate from a Library delivery. Please see APDFL installation instructions for more information on DLI installation on those platforms.
2.22 Ado be P DF L ibr a ry Ins ta ll a ti on Gui de Documentation Unpacking The Adobe PDF Library and DLI documentation suite is delivered in .zip file form, to be unpacked on a Windows machine in a tree directory structure that will allow quick reference, reading and searching of the various documents. Documentation should be extracted to the same C:\Datalogics\APDFLxxx\ location as that of the code installation.
Installing the PDF Library and DLI 2 Unpack the file with WinZip or comparable utility: 3 The folder names must be used when unpacking: 2.
2.24 Ado be P DF L ibr a ry Ins ta ll a ti on Gui de 4 \Codesamples and \Documentation folders will be created as unpacking proceeds: 5 When complete, you can delete the referencelibrary.
Installing the PDF Library and DLI Sample Jobs Each product contains a collection of sample jobs illustrating various tasks. Each sample job is contained within its own subdirectory under its respective product, such as (on Windows platforms) C:\Datalogics\APDFLxxx\Apdfl\Samples\ or C:\Datalogics\APDFLxxx\Dli\Samples\. You may use the makefile.
