Typo above. It should read: "... I want to be able to *past* all info ..." Currently, highlighting and pasting from that dialog is not supported. Oh, and I forgot one more item:
* it should be possible for the user to see the page size the PDF is meant
for (in points as well as in human-readable format, such as "A4" or
"Letter")
This is pretty important. Users wonder why their printers ask for loading Letter sized paper, or their PDF printouts get "cut off" and the reason may be that they print Letter-PDFs on A4 media.
> * it should be possible for the user to see the page size the PDF is meant > for (in points as well as in human-readable format, such as "A4" or > "Letter") This is bug 118938, almost completely implemented in okular. (The "human-readable" part is missing, yet.) Hrrmmmm.... "paste", "paste", "paste", "paste", "paste",... not "past". > (a) the file size (though this may not be actually a part of the official PDF meta data) > (b) the current file path/name/URL Well, no kitten will die if we add some "non official metadata" to the properties dialog, won't they? ;) (Like the page size in okular.) > (c) about embedded fonts the fact if it is embedded as a "subset" or fully This is done in okular, now. Re. the kitten endangerment by adding "un-official metadata" information to the properties dialog: I'm not really an expert, but I think the chances are pretty low. Rather the contrary: they'll be more in danger if users get infuriated to uncontrollable levels because they can't find the info they are looking for... ;-) Anyway -- thanks a lot for all your work! Always speaking about okular:
> (a) the file size (though this may not be actually a part of the official PDF meta data)
this is done as well, now.
Kurt, I think okular provides all the info you wanted, if it still does not, please open a new bug Closing as wontfix as kpdf is not developed anymore |
Version: (using KDE KDE 3.5.5) Installed from: SuSE RPMs (This is also a wish for Okular...) I'd like to see 2 more details in the PDF properties info dialog: (a) the file size (though this may not be actually a part of the official PDF meta data) (b) the current file path/name/URL (c) about embedded fonts the fact if it is embedded as a "subset" or fully For a reference, look what Acrobat Reader does (it does even more than this..) (a) is important when I have a PDF opened in a Konqueror tab that I clicked while browsing the internet. Currently, when saving it, it re-fetches the complete PDF from the original source (can't it use the cached version ?!?) Sometimes I decide to re-fetche the document to a different machine with wget, but before I decide, I'd like to know its size.. (b) is in the Konqueror address bar in case of tabbed/embedded PDF. It is in the window title bar in case of "opened in external viewer". Still, I miss it in the "PDF Properties" info sometimes. And I want to be able to *past* all info from that "PDF Properties" too... (c) knowing about font status is important for troubleshooting printing problems. *I* know that a font is subsetted if it has a "funny" name prefixed. But most users don't. And I want to be able to ask a user on the phone whom I help with pdf printing problems: "Is the font embedded as a subset, or completely?" Priority : wishlist, low Concernts also : Okular
