Hi,
Is there any chance to get support from Qt for PDF files rendering (display only)?

I know poppler, just tested on macos, linux and windows. It works with qt4 but it's not easy to setup, especially on windows.
In addition, it relies on freetype and other libs which makes not easy to distribute. And last, it's GPL and thus I don't know how it can live together with Qt and with my application (covered by LGPL).
My question was about something like phonon, part of the qt externals but distributed and compiled with qt. Could poppler become part of the Qt distribution in the future?
