# pyxpdf_data

This python package consists of encoding files for use with [pyxpdf](https://github.com/ashutoshvarma/pyxpdf).

The encoding files are taken from [poppler_data](https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/poppler/poppler-data) repo .

It is optional and pyxpdf will automatically utilize them if module is install.

## Install

```

pip install pyxpdf_data

```

### Why make seprate module for just encoding files ?

I would love to ship them with pyxpdf but some of these files have different license

than pyxpdf so we have to distribute them seprately.

## License

While pyxpdf is licensed under the GPL, these encoding files have different 

license,  and thus distributed separately.

The cMap data files in the poppler_data folder are under the COPYING.adobe 

license.

The cidToUnicode, nameToUnicode and unicodeMap data files in the the poppler_data 

folder are Copyright Glyph & Cog, LLC and are under the COPYING.gpl2 license.

Fonts in fonts folder are released under the GNU Affero General Public License v3.0.

Verbatim copies of the Ghostscript project's licensing info are included with this

package see fonts/COPYING.affero

The rest of module is licensed under MIT.
