Title: MuPDF Update Request
Post by: combo3 on July 09, 2011, 01:08:22 PM

Would it be possible to get an update to version 0.8?

Thanks.

I'd like to suggest (in the interest to keep 'mupdf.tcz' as small as possible) to not include the extra tools (i.e. 'xpsdraw', 'pdfclean', 'pdfinfo', 'pdfextract', 'pdfdraw', and 'pdfshow') in this extension.

Otherwise the size of the extension roughly doubles compared to the current version in the repository. I could imagine that those tools could become an extension in their own right (e.g. 'mupdf-extras.tcz'). In my (albeit limited) testing none of them were required by the main executable.

I'd like to suggest to include the following snippet from the MuPDF help page (http://mupdf.com/manual) in 'mupdf.tcz.info':

Code: [Select]

Left click to pan, right click to select and copy text. Hold down shift when scrolling to zoom.
Your navigation history is saved when following links, use 'T' to go back.

L, R                 rotate page 
h, j, k, l           scroll page 
+, -                 zoom in or out 
w                    shrinkwrap 
r                    reload file 
. pgdn right space   next page 
, pgup left  b       previous page 
<, >                 skip back/forth 10 pages 
m                    mark page for snap back 
t                    pop back to latest mark 
1m                   mark page in register 1 
1t                   go to page in register 1 
123g                 go to page 123 
/                    search for text 
n, N                 find next/previous search result 
c                    toggle between color and grayscale 

Otherwise it might be a bit difficault for a user to figure out how to use it.
