Description greatbunzinni 2005-10-09 22:00:31 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.4.2)

KGhostVew and KDVI have the same functionality but they have different user interfaces. Because of their nature, it would be great if both had the same user interface.

This will be solved in KDE 4 by oKular.

Should I close?
Comment 2 Wilfried Huss 2005-10-10 11:43:27 UTC 
In KDE 3.5 KDVI (or actually kviewshell, as KDVI is only a plugin for kviewshell) can, besides DVI, also open DJVU and FAX (multipage TIFF) files.

A working PDF-plugin also exists, but it will not be part of KDE 3.5. PostScript support is of course also on the TODO list.

There are a few (slightly outdated) screenshots of the new features at:
