Version:           0.7.1 (using 4.1.2 (KDE 4.1.1 (KDE 4.1 >= 20080828)) "release 49.1", KDE:KDE4:Factory:Desktop / openSUSE_11.0)

OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.25.16-0.1-default

If I open a pdf, so very often I want to print this file.. and I'm missing a printer icon for better and faster usability!

What about File -> Print? Ah, and you can add a "Print" button on your toolbar (Settings -> Configure Toolbars).
Comment 2 sts 2008-09-16 14:29:19 UTC
yes I know this options but I think a lot of people would like this icon by default.
Comment 3 Pino Toscano 2008-09-16 14:39:22 UTC
No, sorry. The toolbar is customizable already as everybody wants, and there's no need to clutter the toolbar more by default.
Comment 4 sts 2008-09-16 15:20:20 UTC
I understand your opinion but I'm not sure it's consistent to other apps like kmail or Adobe Reader. In Adobe Reader, the printer icon is at first! I think the user use the printer icon much more than e.g. the text grab tool.

You don't use kmail for reading documents.

Pity that Acrobat Reader has LOTS more of buttons in its toolbars, so of course adding also "Print" is not a big deal for them.

I don't think so.

Anyway, this will stay open, let's see.

I personally don't think we should add a print button.

What do the usability experts say?

While I don't care about Print button being shown by default, I can't configure toolbars to include the button where I want.

On Configure toolbars dialog, I can customize 2 toolbars: okular_shell (empty by default) and okular_part. Print button is only avaiable on okular_shell. I can't put okular_shell icons on the right of okular_part, forcing me to have a print button as the first icon.

We won't add the printer icon to the toolbar.

About the printer icon being forced to be the first one, that's a kdelibs issue, if you feel like it should be fixed, please report a new bug against kdelibs
