Description Robin Green 2004-08-01 14:52:12 UTC

Installed from:    RedHat RPMs
OS:                Linux

In Acrobat Reader, PDFs can be viewed incrementally, like incremental rendering of web pages in a browser. Please could you add this support to kghostview so that when I go

kghostview http://hipnosi.net/docs/opencms/OpenCmsDoc.pdf

it will start rendering as soon as the first page is downloaded, or similar.

Moving to Okular.

The link is now broken so I cannot check it, and "incremental view" is not something I can find in Acrobats documents. I think this refers to functionality that is no longer needed.

Wrong, it would be nice to have, not super important nowadays where internet speeds are normally super fast, but ideally would be a good thing to have nonetheless.
