Version: (using KDE 4.2.90) Installed from: SuSE RPMs I think the summary is self-explanatory, the preview in such case should show the first page. And the pdf is the most popular so dolphin should support it first.
PDF is there since KDE 3 times. You need the ps/pdf thumbnailer + ghostscript installed.
I second the creation of previews for archive-like format. cbr, cbz and others are just zip or rar files packed with a bunch of images, being able to see the first image in the archive (at least) would be nice.
Supported in KDE SC 4.5.0: - ComicBook (cbr/cbz) - PDF (see comment #1) - Mobipocket ebook Since Okular generators already support many other "ebook" types, it would probably best to create a thumbnailer that uses Okular generators.
We now have PDF support.
*** Bug 302705 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
We have recently (application 17.12), been "robbed" of Okular functionality consisting of storing continuously and unobtrusively annotations in dedicated XML files in "docdata" directory (plus, your documents could be scattered everywhere on your computer, Okular's docdata was doing the job of keeping track of the what, where and when of your notetaking). It is very unfortunate for people doing extensive note taking. However it is supposed to be by "popular demand" and also because it "makes more sense anyway". The matter is discussed there [https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?t=141963]. However there is a functionality of Okular that might atone this sharp turn: annotations and other Okular metadata can be saved in specific Okulars document archive format, functionality not so well advertised: it took me a while to find out the correct ".okular" file extension (and I lost quite a lot in the process). This functionality is also a necessity when someone has annotated a DJVU document. My point related to this thread is, it doesn't seem there is Dolphin's preview associated with this document archive format.
