 Included is a UI tool to inspect PDFs: the PDFExplorer (internal version of the [[PDFtalkSnooper]] application).

+===== Get started =====
+The slides {{pdf:esug2011_slides_pdf_in_smalltalk.pdf|"PDF in Smalltalk"}} (a talk at [[http://www.esug.org/|ESUG]] 2011), give an overview of what this project is about.
-**[[RDF]]** The implementation of the W3C Recommendation [[https://www.w3.org/TR/2014/REC-rdf-syntax-grammar-20140225/|RDF 1.1 XML Syntax]].
+Load the **{PDFtalk Project}** bundle from the [[storeaccess|Cincom Public Store]] into your [[http://www.cincomsmalltalk.com/main/products/visualworks/|VisualWorks]] image.
-**[[PDFtalk4Gemstone|PDFtalk for Gemstone]]** The port of the library to Gemstone Smalltalk. A talk about this was held at ESUG 2017: "PDFtalk for Gemstone" (slides are [[https://www.slideshare.net/esug/pdftalk-for-gemstone|here]]).
+Note 1: The old version of the library is still in the store under the name {PDF Development}. Don't load this.
-**[[GemstoneFileout|Gemstone Fileout]]** A VisualWorks to Gemstone translation tool. This tool, with project specific code transformation declarations, creates a Gemstone filein. Used to create the Gemstone PDFtalkLibrary from the Values package and PDFtalk bundle.
+Note 2: The library uses the ''Values'' package. There has been an incompatible change in version 3. Unfortunately, the old version is in the contribution of VisualWorks up to version 8.3.2. If the old version is loaded, you get errors about ''OrderedDictionary''. This class has been renamed to ''Valuemap'' in the new version. If this error hits you (I tried to prevent this by improving the prerequisites), please load ''Values'' version 3.x first.
