NReco.PdfRenderer 1.2.2

PdfRenderer converts PDF to images (png, jpg, tiff) or text from C#/.NET (wrapper for poppler tools). Component can render PDF pages to image for preview/thumbnail with custom resolution; useful for viewing PDFs without installed PDF viewer. Poppler tool (pdftoppm, pdfinfo, pdfimages, pdftotext) binaries are extracted on first use and you don't need to deploy them separately (only for Windows env).
