feature- light html #75
Description
Converting a PDF that contains 150+ pages takes more than 10+ min.
It would be great if we could skip some feature, like for example css ,script and style.
The Idea is that it will speed up things.
The PDF I am testing is here OVERLORD-VOL15
There is already an issue about creating a progress callback feature, it would be great if you could also add convertlight or something,
that will skip some tasks that a developer do not want.
When I convert the pdf to html, I am trying to create an ebook with it. And that is why I would not care about style as I already have my own.
I would rewrite all the text and would not care about style etc..
For reference About what I mean, please read stackoverflow

I think there is quite some optimization potential with pdf2htmlEX which is not utilized yet. one thing is the compression level or resolution of the bitmap the PDF is rendered into. the other thing is doing the rendering async and on demand e.g. you can scroll through the document and the pages appear one after the other

pdf2htmlEX has some input parameters (arguments) that could be tweaked.

I'll expose them in Java interface.
