I am quite curious about this fantastic feature of LibreOffice which
allows me to open a PDF and edit it in the UI - even though it seems
to screw the fonts a bit. I wanted to have a look at the source code
to see if there is some sort of PDF "model" being built from the
original PDF document, for instance a set of objects each describing
the graphic meanings of a particular region within the page. I did
not succeed very much as I am not familiar with the codebase and the
project is quite big.
Can anybody point me in the right direction ? Is there a specific
place where this PDF "normalization" takes place ?
At a quick glance, 'sdext/source/pdfimport' looks like a good place to
start with; I personally don't know more related to your more specific
question.
