IDRsolutions' BuildVu Microservice Example is an open source project that allows you to convert PDF to HTML5 or SVG by running BuildVu as a web service in the cloud or on-premise.
Please note that BuildVu is paid-for, commercial software - however you can use the trial version for free. Just rename the trial .jar to "buildvu.jar".
If you do not have a full verison of BuildVu you can get the trial version from here.
Clone a copy of the buildvu-microservice-example git repo:
git clone git://github.com/idrsolutions/buildvu-microservice-example
Add the BuildVu jar to the project by copying it into the /lib directory. Make sure that it is named "buildvu.jar"
Open up a terminal / command prompt window in the base directory of the buildvu-microservice-example project, and build the .war file by running the command:
mvn compile war:war
This will generate the buildvu.war file inside the /target directory.
