In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing FlashPaper on OpenBSD. FlashPaper is an open-source tool that allows users to convert PDF documents to flash animations.
To get started, follow the steps below:
Before installing FlashPaper, you need to install some dependencies. To do so, run the following command:
sudo pkg_add poppler-utils swftools
This command will install the necessary dependencies that FlashPaper needs to run on OpenBSD.
Next, you need to clone the FlashPaper repository from GitHub. To do so, run the following command:
git clone https://github.com/AndrewPaglusch/FlashPaper.git
This command will download the source code of FlashPaper to your local machine.
After cloning the repository, navigate to the FlashPaper directory and run the following commands to compile and install FlashPaper:
cd FlashPaper
make
sudo make install
This will compile and install FlashPaper on your OpenBSD system.
To test if FlashPaper is installed correctly, run the following command:
flashpaper -V
If FlashPaper is installed correctly, you should see the version number of FlashPaper printed in your terminal.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed FlashPaper on your OpenBSD system. Now you can use FlashPaper to convert PDF documents to flash animations.
