Can't Mozilla's pdf.js be used to get the same result? Great results anyway!

  You don't want to rely on the computing power at the client side, do you? :)

    I guess one possible setup would be pdf.js running on server-side and having its output captured. One advantage of this, from what I can see, is that there would probably be fewer external dependencies than this setup.

      Yes, actually they had this kind of plan, but I am not sure how it has been going. It would be definitely interesting in that way, but in that case it may not be worth it to rewrite everything in JS.
