-Overview.
----------
-
-There are 2 ways to compile poppler on Windows:
-* using mingw compiler under cygwin
-* using native Visual Studio (msvc) makefile
-
-This document describes the second method.
-
-First, the native msvc makefile is meant as a template, not a final product.
-It only builds statically linked 'perf-test' executable. If you want to
-incorporate poppler into your own program, you can use msvc makefile as an
-example of how to compile poppler code on Windows with msvc.
-
-Poppler depends on 3 libraries that are not easily available on Windows:
-* freetype
-* libjpeg
-* zlib
-
-To make it easy, I've made those dependencies available as pre-compiled
-files. You need to download http://windevlibs.googlecode.com/files/ext.zip
-and unzip under 'ext' directory. Those are header files and static libraries
-for freetype, libjpeg and zlib.
-
-You can use your own static or dll versions of those dependencies (most likely
-that will require tweaking a makefile).
-
-Compilation.
-------------
-
-The msvc makefile is called 'makefile.vc' and you can compile poppler on command
-line with: 'nmake -f makefile.vc TARGET=rel' (or TARGET=dbg).
-
-You need to have nmake in your path. If you have Visual Studio 2005, you can
-setup the environment by executing 
-"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\Tools\vsvars32.bat" batch
-file (assuming standard installation).
-Other versions of Visual Studio have an equivalent of this file - it's just
-named differently.
-
-The build works for me with Visual Studio 2005 SP1 but Visual Studio 2005 and
-(free) Visual Studio 2005 Express should work as well.
-
-Other versions of Visual Studio should work as well (makefile might need to
-be tweaked since some of the linker/compiler flags might have changed).
-
-The result of compilation is a 'perftest.exe' in either 'rel' or 'dbg' directory.
-
-It's a command line application that shows the basics of using poppler API and
-is meant for regression and performance testing. You can use it like this:
-perftest -slowpreview file.pdf
-For more advanced usage, use --help option or consult the sources.
-
-When you have problems.
------------------------
-
-I would like to be able to say "post to a mailing list and you'll get help"
-but realistically, you're on your own.
-
-If there are problems, they're most likely due to different/incorrect setup
-on your machine and not in poppler code. This is a slightly advanced setup
-and you're expected to be able to understand errors from your compiler or
-linker and correct them.
