[evince] Smooth scrolling and Zooming

Benjamin Trias — 2012-05-23T09:00:28

Dear all,

I'v been lacking a good tool for studying* and since I have some knowledge
of programming, albeit basic, I've started a project to create this tool.

Working with PyQt4 and python-poppler-qt4 I've managed so far to display
PDFs in a scroll area and make some text selection. However, the zooming
and scrolling on the document is very poorly rendered. Scrolling is delayed
while the image is loaded onto visible pages and zooming (i.e. resizing the
document) renders all rickety and flickery.

Would you have any suggestions on how to proceed?

Of course, since I use Qt4, you will probably refer me to the Okular team.
Still I'd like to know what you suggest.


Thanks.

Benjamin

**That's not completely true, there is Mendeley which achieves most of what
I want to do. Although its freeness depends on a limited cloud, which soon
asks for money to get larger.*

[evince] how-to set up default format for paper (other then A4format)

Marek Testowany — 2012-05-14T09:18:29

Hi

I have a problem, our doctors print "Medical prescription" on custom paper
size 99x210mm  (format A4 divided by 3) - from web -> generated PDF file
(via plug-in from browser)
Every time a person want to print, she/he need to change settings from A4
paper size - to custom size defined by me.

Evince does'nt check PDF size.

Is there a way (config file) to set default to paper size custom (other A4)

Best regards
Marek

[evince] Annotations

Benjamin Trias — 2012-05-10T11:01:00

Dear Evincers,

I am curious about the development status of Evince. As a student /
researcher, I am reading many articles and ebooks in PDF formats. I am
unfortunately not able to do much more than reading my PDFs. Ideally, I
would like to be able to highlight and annotate my documents. Annotations
would be best organised, in my opinion, as notes on the side of the
document, with arrows pointing at the section of the document that is being
commented (very much like the annotation system on Libre Office).

There are programs like Mendeley which offer these highlight and annotation
features, but Mendeley is pushes all document on a cloud (which is soon
overloaded and makes Mendeley unusable until you give money).

The features of highlight would be a great feature improving my work flow
and most probably that of many more students.

Would you please consider this feature request?

Kind regards,
Benjamin

That pdf is an XFA and is intentionally limited to adobe's reader with

If you run pdfinfo on it, you should see:

Re: [evince] Problems installing evince in Win7 because window was not correctly displayed

basti — 2012-04-26T18:21:27

I have install evince via "command line" on windows 7 pro.

if it is a solution for you try:

msiexec /i /qr "name or path to msi file" APPLICATIONFOLDER="C:\foobar"

This will install evince with a "Reduced (installation) UI" in the
folder C:\foobar.
If you install to default use it without "APPLICATIONFOLDER".

[evince] 3D imaging and Evince.

Sean D.S. Gordon — 2012-04-25T18:21:37

Dear Evince developers,

First of all thank you for putting your time into such an excellent
application!

I'm a serious LaTeX user and I've recently made a presentation with all
manner of 3D embedded videos and images to check out Movie9's
capabilities. I was sad to see that Evince will not display this
content. I unfortunately had to use a Windows VM and adobe to see the
fruits of my labour.

I'd be very glad (and I'm sure I wouldn't be the only one) if you'd
consider spending some time on getting u3d and mp4 embedding into
Evince, this was us LaTeX users can show off the system to our lowly
powerpoint addicted colleagues just a little bit more (:   .

With very best wishes,

Sean.

Hi,

Annotations support is the most wanted feature. Can please make this happen.
