ShinyApps support for pdftools

Hi,

I have a shiny app that I run locally that reads and parses a pdf using the pdftools that I'm trying to deploy to shinyapps.io.

Whenever I try to deploy, I get a timeout error.

It looks like the issue is that lib-poppler is 0.41 on shinyapps, but pdftools uses 0.73. Is there a way to update shinyapps or can I configure my deploy to somehow use the older version? Or can someone suggest an alternative pdf reading package that works on shinyapps?

Thank you!

The exact error message is:

+ set -e
+ apt-get update -qq
