Hello duntcare,

    I will take a look on how to create a binary for mac (I hope it is not that difficult).

I tried copying 2 books into ChessPDFBrowser and convert to PGN it didn't work for me.

I open the program with ChessPDFbrowser-main-v1.20-SNAPSHOT-all.jar, click file, click open, select Mammoth Book of Chess.pdf, click open and the book opens in a separate window.

When I click 'scan for pgn games' it scans the book three times and only finds this

If I then click file save as PGN it saves a PGN file with 1618 games all at the starting position mostly with no notation but the odd one or two with notation that has nothing to do with the position.

hummmm

    The book is in algebraic notation ?

    Have you checked the language of that algebraic notation ? does it match with the selected one ? (you can choose up to 20 diferent languages in a combobox, at Extract games window)

preferences - language = EN book is in English algebraic notation, would like me to send a copy to you?

you can send it to frojasg1@hotmail.com

Might be because of the book format, it has a single column of text but for games it switches to two columns and the parser gets confused.

I'll check the source code, I'm also a programmer (C# since 10 years ago but I also know Java and Python), might be able to give a hand if I find something wrong.

In theory the parser is prepared for two columns also ...

Although I could not test that with many books, but in theory it can.

the thing is that the application does not work with figurine algebraic notation yet.

May be in a future version.

Hey this is a really awesome idea, thanks for this! I just tried launching it but here's the error I get  :

java --version gives :

openjdk 18-ea 2022-03-15
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 18-ea+15-Ubuntu-4)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 18-ea+15-Ubuntu-4, mixed mode, sharing)

I'm trying to run this on Ubuntu 21.04

I just tried using openjdk-8 and it works like a charm, thanks!

Thank you very much for your report, Nidish.

It seems like an issue with the installation of java-18 in Ubuntu and the use of GUIs ... I will have a look to see if there is an easy solution.

Although I know that will not be the most desired solution, there is another option to make the application translate pdf books:

Using the command line version, which comes with the application:

pdf2pgn (there is a script that easies the way to use it, and it allows automation if you have a lot of books and you do not feel like  opening each one and  executing the translation manually )

i see the creator has not been online for a while, if anyone can assist me, am getting error memory full when i click scan pdf for games
