Hi Francois,

Thanks for your quick response.

Actually, I had already done that...

sudo apt-get install libpoppler-cpp-dev
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
libpoppler-cpp-dev is already the newest version (0.41.0-0ubuntu1.1).
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 107 not upgraded.

Therefore, I assume I have this installed.

Best regards,

Eduardo
