The error in the log is:
{{{
:info:configure -- Checking for module 'libfontforge>=2.0.0'
:info:configure -- No package 'libfontforge' found
:info:configure Trying to locate old versions of fontforge...

Duplicate of #56803. pdf2htmlex was discontinued by its developer years
ago and is obsolete. It relies on old versions of fontforge and poppler
which are no longer in MacPorts. It would need to use years-old versions
of fontforge and poppler which may be vulnerable to certain security
issues. Please find some other software to accomplish your goal.
