I've just had a look at it, and found that it misses some important features present in xpdf, e.g. * PDF bookmarks. * Permament fit page (i.e. when one resizes the window or with the fullscreen toggle), and BTW, one has to try both W and H. * Copy with the left button (the right button is hardly usable with a trackpad for dragging). So, it can't be seen as a good replacement for xpdf. Other PDF viewers have their own drawbacks as well. -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
