Morning
To start out, let me just say I'm a python novice - so I hope this question isn't going to be stupid.
I'm running Mac 10.13.4 (Beta) and am trying to get PyMuPDF working.
As per https://github.com/rk700/PyMuPDF/:
- I've downloaded both PyMuPDf and MuPDF.
- I ran
brew install mupdf-tools - I ran
export ARCHFLAGS='-arch x86_64'
At this point I am not sure whether I need to build MuPDF by running
make prefix=/usr/local install
(as per https://mupdf.com/docs/building.html) or go straight to
python setup.py install
If I try build mupdf using make, then I get the following error:
include/mupdf/fitz/config.h:92:1: error: expected identifier or '('
... ... ...
^
In file included from source/fitz/archive.c:1:
In file included from include/mupdf/fitz.h:35:
include/mupdf/fitz/pixmap.h:360:2: error: unknown type name 'ptrdiff_t'
ptrdiff_t stride;
If I run the setup.py install, then I get errors when trying to import Fitz. I know that there is an instruction saying that the include_dirs and library_dirs should be updated, but the directories they refer to do not appear to be there (other that in the source files I downloaded).
I appreciate that this is all down to me being a python rookie - any pointers would be greatly appreciated.
