uViewer

A simple viewer for VB6 to show PDF/WPS/EPUB documents.
Written in ANSI-C, this library is also platform-independent, therefore, it's suitable for any case that we're able to call the C functions, for example, Java native interface.

For a demo project for Visual Basic 6, please check 'platform/vb6/demo'.

To build:
In Windows, you should have the MinGW installed, in addition, GNU make, gcc, python, sed 4.2 or greater are also required.
Then, change the directory to the root of project.
> make
> make install
If you want to debug the demo project in VB6 IDE, please set VB6_INSTALL_PATH variable as your installation path of VB, to which we will copy the dll files.

There will be two font libraries in 'build' directory:

One is called 'libuvfont', which contained some frequently-used fonts. Be careful that some them is copyright, see /resources/fonts/*/COPYING for details.
Another, called 'libuvfont-tiny', is a lite version of the first one.
To register a font (load it into memory as a shared object), consider uv_register_font() api.
