Tabks for the replies. I tried your last pointer, but without luck. I decided to let it go. It is not that much important for me (it may be important for others, though) Thanks again, Jos

As for the idea of packaging it - I was looking at racket poppler as an example that uses different binaries for different platforms: (define deps '("draw-lib" "slideshow-lib" "web-server-lib" "base" "pict" ("poppler-x86-64-macosx" #:platform "x86_64-macosx") ("poppler-i386-macosx" #:platform "i386-macosx") ("poppler-ppc-macosx" #:platform "ppc-macosx") ("poppler-win32-x86-64" #:platform "win32\\x86_64") ("poppler-win32-i386" #:platform "win32\\i386"))) https://github.com/soegaard/racket-poppler/blob/master/info.rkt (As you can see it includes different binaries for 32 and 64 bit versions of OS X and windows.) It looks like packaging up executables should straightforward, but I've never done this before - and noting is ever as simple as it looks.... https://github.com/soegaard/poppler-libs/tree/master/poppler-win32-x86_64/ra cket-poppler s.

I suppose that would have to run on a 64 bit processor too, isn't it? Anyway, I don't se problems when downloading and running 32 bit versions of Racket. (I usually use the 64 bit version) Thanks for your help.

It's a bit heavy handed, but it might be an expedient way to get it done. If you can identify the right executable we can take a crack at a package to install it. S.
