The result sort-of-works in xpdf but when you click on a name/label the image moves to centre somewhere slightly to the right and below the item in question. I guessing 'a few cm below and a few mm to the right', but am not sure what the 'native' size of the PDF is. The item is also not highlighted, and so is very hard to pick out in a complex schematic, and evan harder in the actual board layout (last page). If there was highlighting, then the incorrect centering would not matter much (so long as the item was actually on the screen somewhere). Indeed. I believe it is the case that it is correct for the item not always to be centred on the screen (e.g. when the edge of the PDF is already on-screen, so it cannot be moved further inwards). So the highlighting issue is really the main problem - it just seems that the centering is also wrong when it does occur (and is currently the only clue to where what you are looking for is). Here is the example document I have been using: http://balloonboard.org/hardware/321/Balloon3v21_smartpdf.pdf (it is 19MB so I haevn't included it with this bugrep :-) I suggest using the J9, J11, J6 type entries as examples to illustrate the issue, as they are relatively easy to find visually after xpdf gets you 'somewhere near'. ('J' denotes a connector in this schematic). Happy to do further testing if needed, but this should be trivial to reproduce - I don't know how hard it is to fix. thanx for reading, Wookey -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (600, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22-2-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages xpdf depends on: ii xpdf-common 3.02-1.2 Portable Document Format (PDF) sui ii xpdf-reader 3.02-1.2 Portable Document Format (PDF) sui ii xpdf-utils 3.02-1.2 Portable Document Format (PDF) sui xpdf recommends no packages.
