      guint16 blue;
    } PopplerColor;

A PopplerColor describes a RGB color. Color components are values between 0 and 65535

guint16 `red`; | the red componment of color
guint16 `green`; | the green component of color
guint16 `blue`; | the blue component of color

### enum PopplerPrintFlags

      POPPLER_PRINT_STAMP_ANNOTS_ONLY = 1 << 1,
      POPPLER_PRINT_ALL               = POPPLER_PRINT_MARKUP_ANNOTS
    } PopplerPrintFlags;

Printing flags

`POPPLER_PRINT_DOCUMENT` | print main document contents
`POPPLER_PRINT_MARKUP_ANNOTS` | print document and markup annotations
`POPPLER_PRINT_STAMP_ANNOTS_ONLY` | print document and only stamp annotations
`POPPLER_PRINT_ALL` | print main document contents and all markup annotations

### poppler_get_backend ()

    PopplerBackend      poppler_get_backend                 (void);

Returns the backend compiled into the poppler library.

Returns : | The backend used by poppler

### poppler_get_version ()

    const char *        poppler_get_version                 (void);

Returns the version of poppler in use. This result is not to be freed.

Returns : | the version of poppler.

Parses a PDF format date string and converts it to a time_t. Returns FALSE if the parsing fails or the input string is not a valid PDF format date string

`date` : | string to parse
`timet` : | an uninitialized time_t
Returns : | TRUE, if `timet` was set
