| cryptopsy | ah okay | 01:48.03 |
| | thanks | 01:48.32 |
| setmeaway | can ghostscript convert png file to pdf? | 06:17.01 |
| Robin_Watts | Not directly, but there may be a library (viewlib.ps?) supplied with gs that can be used. | 09:32.28 |
| cryptopsy | you can also use imagemagick, which isn't part of ghostscript | 09:33.42 |
| tor8 | setmeaway: https://github.com/ccxvii/snippets/blob/master/pnmtopdf.c | 11:31.06 |
| setmeaway | tor8 that is awesome. | 11:43.30 |
| sebras | tor8: seems like it would be useful if some bot had the answers to pngtopdf, pdftopng, pstopdf, pdftops, psnup, etc. to the common questions on ghostscript... | 11:50.28 |
| tor8 | may I ask a question? | 11:50.49 |
| | bah. ghostbot isn't awake. | 11:51.01 |
| | ghostbot: ask a question? | 11:52.08 |
| ghostbot | Don't ask to ask, just ask. | 11:52.08 |
| setmeaway | ghostbot: you are awesome | 12:08.33 |
| ghostbot | setmeaway: what are you talking about? | 12:08.33 |
| setmeaway | LOL | 12:08.42 |
| tor8 | Robin_Watts: http://developer.nvidia.com/nv-path-rendering with that in mind, making a pure hardware accelerated opengl rendering device (using that nvidia extension) for mupdf looks very possible | 12:22.57 |
| Robin_Watts | ghostbot: may I ask a question is Don't ask to ask, just ask. | 12:30.29 |
| ghostbot | Robin_Watts: okay | 12:30.29 |
| Robin_Watts | ghostbot: can I ask a question is Don't ask to ask, just ask. | 12:30.37 |
| ghostbot | Robin_Watts: okay | 12:30.37 |
| Robin_Watts | ghostbot: \is this the right place to ask a question about ghostscript is Don't ask to ask, just ask. | 12:31.02 |
| ghostbot | that's too long, Robin_Watts | 12:31.02 |
| Robin_Watts | I kinds feel I'd be better just hacking the source :0 | 12:31.19 |
| tor8 | Robin_Watts: it doesn't take regexes? | 12:32.19 |
| Robin_Watts | tor8: no. | 12:41.51 |
| sebras | Robin_Watts: there are some patches on my mupdf branch if you want to take a look. the last three are related to bugzilla 692419 pdf where I cut the render time from 22s to 1s on my machine. yey! :) | 13:04.05 |
| Robin_Watts | sebras: nice. I haven't got time to look today, but I'll try and look tomorrow. But it's tor that's the gatekeeper :) | 13:06.34 |
| sebras | Robin_Watts: I know, but if you pre-review them I'm hoping that the chance of tor8 vetoing them is less... | 13:07.55 |
| jrm222 | Is it possible to print? | 16:49.52 |
| | ...from mupdf? | 16:50.01 |
| sebras | jrm222: no, not from the viewer you download from mupdf.com | 18:51.56 |
| | jrm222: if you are implemeting your own viewer then you can. The windows viewer Sumatrapdf which is based on MuPDF implements a GDI+ interface to allow printing. | 18:53.21 |
| | jrm222: I haven't heard of any intentions from tor8 (the main MuPDF developer) to add printing to the default viewer though. | 18:54.52 |
| | tor8: do you still have the old pdfs for 692171? gcc-errors.pdf and old.pdf | 19:16.48 |
| jrm222 | Thanks sebras. I'm running mupfd on FreeBSD, so I don't think there are any derivatives. | 20:37.56 |
| tor8 | jrm222: no printing with mupdf, use ghostscript for that. or sumatrapdf on windows. | 21:04.41 |
| marcosw_ | can I ask a question? | 22:34.37 |
| ghostbot | from memory, can i ask a question is Don't ask to ask, just ask. | 22:34.37 |
| marcosw_ | I'm not sure that's quite what we want :-) | 22:35.00 |
| Robin_Watts | Hey mvrhel2: How was the hiking ? | 23:23.46 |
| | Henry and I discussed various ideas about trying to speed rops up on friday here on irc. | 23:24.21 |
| | My quick test showed that plank was faster than pamcmyk4 for pdf_reference17.pdf | 23:24.51 |
| | If that's true of most PS/PDF files (or at least they are about the same), then we could be quids in when we turn on your halftoning code. | 23:25.29 |
| | And the problem then could just be with ropping devices. | 23:25.40 |
| | (i.e. PCL only). | 23:25.46 |
| | I did a 'plankr' device (that uses 1 bit rgb throughout) and then inverts that to get cmy, and generates k from it mechanically at the end. | 23:26.42 |
| | That avoids the cmyk to rgb phases, but still leaves the rops doing chunky to planar. | 23:27.40 |
| | Anyway, we'd like to discuss the ideas with you at some point. | 23:28.04 |
| | Big earthquake in Nepal. My mother is on a plane heading there now... :/ | 23:39.21 |
| | Forward 1 day (to 2011/09/19)>>> | |
