sebras tor8: is fz_open_buffer() really meant to be an external interface? and is fz_buffer meant to be one too?01:56.47 
  to me tit seems as if fz_open_memory() would be enough, and I fail to see what advantages fz_buffer provide to a client.01:57.24 
  tor8 Robin_Watts: I didn't fix everything, becuase I'm simply too tired.02:38.38 
  I did push a silly fix to sebras/master which might be good.02:38.56 
  and a new commit towards sebras/doc.02:39.06

CoolCoder I have installed ghostscript in windows 7. now "gs --version" on command line is not working. I know there is some path should be assigned. any help regarding setting up path?09:23.23 
henrys alexcher:please see your email and get back with me. thanks.18:26.39 
alexcher henrys: I'm leaving for the conference now but I'll have plenty of time to complete the Portfolio problem on the plane.18:36.21 
paulgardiner henrys: Some information I've found today suggest that we may not need to use OpenGL to get good performance on tablets. Not sure yet, but I'll look into it more tomorrow, amd should hopefully know more before your meeting starts.18:39.36 
inad922 hello18:56.51 
ghostbot salut, inad92218:56.51 
inad922 I would like to restructure some pdf files that were meant to be printed on A4 paper to look good on A5 paper. Anyone knows how to do this with ghostscript?18:57.46 
ray_laptop inad922: the -dPDFFitPage option will scale / rotate for a best fit, so using this in combination with -sPAPERSIZE=a5 should work19:14.13 
  inad922: you can use -sDEVICE= to select the image format device or pdfwrite if you want to create a modified PDF19:15.13 
  inad922: BTW, mention 'ray' and my IRC tool will alert me if you have more questions. Many of the other ghostscript developers are traveling today.19:16.09 
inad922 wow cool19:35.52 
  thanks ray19:35.55 
  I try this out19:35.58 
  other people suggested some gui tools but I would like to make a script for this and ghostscript seems the best tool for this19:36.50 
ray_laptop mvrhel: do you recall what the 9.05 default CMYK profile is ? is it one of the 'standards' (i.e. SWOP or something) ?19:41.44 
  inad922: the PDFFitPage feature is used by a lot of people to make 'thumbnail' images of the PDF pages.19:42.42 
inad922 never used that feature19:43.31 
  but I've seen docs like that.19:43.46 
  I need the conversion because on the kindle A4 formatted pages are unreadable while A5 is still readable19:44.11 
  at least for me19:44.13 
mvrhel ray_laptop: yes CMYK SWOP V220:09.15 
  or our version of that. I took the standard one and stripped it down a bit to reduce the size20:09.34 
inad922 ray_laptop: Hmm I issue the gs -dPDFFitPage -sPAPERSIZE=a5 -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -sOutputFile=out.pdf -dBATCH /home/dani/hoho.pdf command but it produces the same document.20:09.51

kens chrisl_x100e : Robin_Watts Looks like tor is due in at 7:15, but expected (atm) at 6:53. But then he has to clear immigration and get out here. I think I'd like to have dinner earlier than he's likely to get here (long day). Let me know if you find anything different.23:13.02 
chrisl_x100e kens, Robin_Watts: I think I agree - I don't want to fall asleep in my meal!23:30.43 
mvrhel where are you guys?23:42.54 
  I am getting ready to head to the airport in about 45 minutes..23:43.18 
chrisl_x100e mvrhel: Robin, Ken and I got into SF a couple of hours ago23:43.55 
mvrhel gotcha. how is the wifi at the hotel23:44.20 
chrisl_x100e Seems okay - just about quick enough, and seems pretty reliable (so far - fingers crossed!)23:45.06 
kens famous last words...23:45.28 
mvrhel wait until I get there and and eat up all the bandwidth23:45.49 
chrisl_x100e Well, it's good enough for me to listen to BBC radio streaming......23:46.24 
mvrhel I was listening to that myself this afternoon23:46.40 
kens Hmm, while I was in the shower the maid has come in and left something for 'Carla Ferris, Hilton Honours diamond member'....23:47.11 
mvrhel at least she kept out of the shower23:47.26 
chrisl_x100e kens: if you turn up for dinner wearing a dress, you're on your own!23:47.47 
kens I didn't bring one....23:48.05 
chrisl_x100e Phew, I don't think I could get used to calling you Carla.....23:49.38 
kens I think it might be hard to get away with it, I can't do an American accent23:50.16 
chrisl_x100e Oh, yes, the *accent* would be the biggest giveaway23:51.23 
kens :-)23:51.32 
mvrhel wish I knew what an american accent sounds like23:56.30 
kens Just listen to some films :-)23:57.03
