Congrats to the PDF.js team for the adoption.

I'm curious as to how the pdf2htmlEX project [0] compares to PDF.js. Instead of client-side conversion this is a server-side one-time conversion from PDF to HTML5.

I tried in past and I can tell you that pdf2htmlEX don't have acurate rendering, even if is based on Poppler, because generates HTML code at absolute position that looks different in every browser and have problems with index of layers.
