| | how to build static libgs.a on linux? | 06:07.40 |
| robin_watts_mac | Morning kens. | 06:53.22 |
| kens | Hi robin_watts_mac | 06:53.29 |
| vtorri | hey | 07:43.26 |
| | what are the changes in mupdf 1.1 wrt 1.0 ? | 07:43.41 |
| robin_watts_mac | stability and fixes. | 07:45.15 |
| | No significant API changes. | 07:45.22 |
| robin_watts_mac | heads out into the heat. If I melt before I return, it's been nice knowing you all. | 07:45.57 |
| vtorri | thanks | 07:46.34 |
| | would it be possible to have a basic ChangeLog file ? (in source tree or online) | 07:57.19 |
| | http://code.google.com/p/mupdf/<--- missing cbz support | 08:50.46 |
| sebras | vtorri: http://mupdf.com/news will this do? | 08:52.22 |
| vtorri | sebras, haaaa | 08:53.05 |
| | thanks | 08:53.07 |
| | just one question about the size of a page | 08:55.17 |
| | i have viewed the bzip2 manual with acrobat reader, size 100% | 08:55.43 |
| | and i have exported to a png the manual with mudraw | 08:56.00 |
| | their size is not the same | 08:56.09 |
| | mupdf renders with smaller size | 08:56.19 |
| | is it normal ? | 08:56.24 |
| sebras | vtorri: did you give any -r option to mudraw? | 08:56.59 |
| vtorri | ,o | 08:57.07 |
| | no* | 08:57.09 |
| | i verify | 08:57.19 |
| sebras | vtorri: I'm thinking that maybe acrobat reader assumes dpi == 96 while mudraw defaults to dpi == 72. | 08:57.28 |
| vtorri | no | 08:57.36 |
| | nothing except -o | 08:57.43 |
| | ha | 08:57.48 |
| sebras | vtorri: so you could try -r 96 to mudraw and see if that alleviates the issue. | 08:57.50 |
| vtorri | possible | 08:57.51 |
| | checking | 08:58.02 |
| | better, but mupdf output still smaller | 08:59.57 |
| sebras | vtorri: how big are they? | 09:01.41 |
| vtorri | difficult to say | 09:01.56 |
| | just download bzip2 and open manual.pdf | 09:04.02 |
| sebras | vtorri: btw, when you say that cbz-support is missing. are you thinking about the pre-built binaries? if so which one? | 09:36.16 |
| vtorri | http://code.google.com/p/mupdf/<--- the description | 09:36.42 |
| | it is said that xps is supported | 09:36.54 |
| | but no mention of cbz | 09:37.01 |
| sebras | tor8: would it make sense for acrobat to assume 110 dpi on my 93dpi screen? | 09:37.50 |
| robin_watts_mac | vtorri: git log :) | 10:25.19 |
| vtorri | robin_watts_mac, for changelog ? | 10:25.38 |
| | hell no :) | 10:25.40 |
| alexcher | kens: what do you think about passing the whole /PageLabel dictionary including the number tree. e.g. mark <<...>> /PAGELABEL pdfmark | 12:07.08 |
| kens | alexcher, that seems reasonable to me | 12:08.15 |
| | I'll have to check the pdfmark reference but I can't see any reason why that would be a problem | 12:09.01 |
| alexcher | kens: when we process multple files of part of the file the dictionary will be out of sync. | 12:10.06 |
| kens | Hmm, that's wlready the case though, I believe | 12:10.38 |
| | For instance we have this problem with Outlines | 12:10.49 |
| | And any /Dest which references a page outside the printed range. | 12:11.15 |
| | There's no reasonable way to deal with this, if people process multiple input files to one single output file, then the result for metadata is unlikely to be acceptable. | 12:11.48 |
| | Possibvle we shoul have a method to prevent this sort of data from being processed. | 12:12.08 |
| | A command line switch or something. I don't think there's any other way to signal the end of one input and the beginning of another | 12:12.48 |
| alexcher | kens: one can easily pass the end of the PDF file flag and the original page number using one more custom pdfmark. | 12:16.53 |
| kens | alexcher, that's true, but what can we do with that information if there are multipe inpu tfiles to be merged ? Other than reject the Pagelables as inappropriate for the merged file. | 12:17.32 |
| | I essence that's what we do with /Dest pdfamrks which have a page desitnation outside the range of the file. | 12:18.10 |
| alexcher | kens: Page labels can be adjusted. /Dest is a different story. | 12:19.12 |
| kens | wHmm, how can we adjut the page labels ? I'm not completely fmailiar with this aspect of PDF files.... | 12:19.38 |
| alexcher | kens: Page Label is just a text and a formatted number associated with the page. | 12:20.45 |
| kens | Right, but there's no guarantee that hte label makes sense if we cut the file down | 12:21.07 |
| | THe labels in the example display as '1 von124' if we only print pages 50-60, then the label '50 von124' isn't sensible | 12:22.02 |
| | Or am I missing something there ? | 12:22.26 |
| | I haven't actually looked at the file recently | 12:22.38 |
| alexcher | kens: The spec clearly says that labels and numbers don't need to match. | 12:23.35 |
| kens | goes off to look at the specimen file | 12:23.40 |
| | alexcher, but then it doesn't matter if the pagelabels dictionary goes out of sync if we have multiple input files ? | 12:24.34 |
| | Oh, the original bug report doesn't have a file attached, that's less than helpful... | 12:25.17 |
| | alexcher I'm sort of wrapped up with linearisation, I'm obviously going to have to read the pdfmark spec and PDF reference on this subject. | 12:26.04 |
| alexcher | kens: I'd think that original labels should be preserved. We have many PDF files with /PageLabel dictionary. | 12:26.18 |
| kens | i suggest that, for now, we implement it the way you suggest, and worry about multiple inputs/partial output later. | 12:26.44 |
| alexcher | OK | 12:26.53 |
| kens | It'll be a few weeks before I can modify the pdfmark processing anywa, since I have pdfwrite in little bits at the moment. | 12:27.28 |
| chrisl | robin_watts_mac: can you remember if you got the 64 bit Windows build working on 32 bit Windows? | 13:27.04 |
| robin_watts_mac | I believe so. | 13:27.15 |
| | I think it was ray that made it work. | 13:27.22 |
| kens | You can run a 64-bit binary on 32-bit Windows ? | 13:27.42 |
| robin_watts_mac | no. | 13:27.46 |
| | The 64bit compilers are (or were) 32bit binaries | 13:28.11 |
| chrisl | A guy contacted me with revisions to the nsis installer to do a unified installer for both 32 and 64 binaries. | 13:28.29 |
| kens | wwwah, just building, that msakes more sense | 13:28.29 |
| robin_watts_mac | So it's just a question of fiddling with the exes that run as part of the build process. | 13:28.30 |
| | of course, I now have a 64bit windows box, so I may be misremembering. | 13:29.20 |
| kens | I'm still running on 32-bit | 13:29.46 |
| | Don't know if I can build 64-bit binaries though | 13:29.57 |
| chrisl | Yeh, I haven't had a 32 bit windows setup for years, so I can't test it - although, as I'm the only person that ever builds the installers, I don't suppose it matters much | 13:30.02 |
| robin_watts_mac | I have a 32bit XP on the mac here, but I haven't got the 64bit compilers installed. | 13:47.23 |
| | Maybe next week when my shiny new Hybrid SSD/HD arrives. | 13:47.41 |
| chrisl | robin_watts_mac: don't worry about it, it's not that important | 13:47.44 |
| henrys | wow this week and the entire summer for that matter have gone by quickly | 14:48.43 |
| robin_watts_mac | henrys: Time flies when you're HPGL2ing :) | 15:25.04 |
| henrys | yeah lucky me, right now I'm packing my bags for the final race of the summer, up that damn peak again. | 15:25.38 |
| robin_watts_mac | Jeez. You're a glutton for punishment. | 15:26.23 |
| | I've done something to my right foot. I was hoping that taking a week off running would let it heal, but it still hurts after I walk on it. | 15:27.25 |
| henrys | one nice thing about the triathlon stuff is a lot less pain. With running full time something was usually bothering me, I never really had to stop running but just some random ache. Running is tough on your body | 15:30.42 |
| | maybe you should look for softer surfaces to run on. | 15:31.33 |
| | is there snorkeling in malta? coral reef? | 15:33.21 |
| robin_watts_mac | henrys: Malta has no real beaches to speak of. | 15:34.03 |
| henrys | from pictures I see the incredible blue waters looks tropical. | 15:34.27 |
| robin_watts_mac | Supposedly the sea is very clear. | 15:34.35 |
| | But because so little of the coast is actually nice for people to get into the water, it tends to be heaving with holidaymakers where it is. | 15:35.09 |
| | There are 3 islands here, malta (where we were), gozo (where we are) and a little one in the middle (comino?) | 15:36.02 |
| | Supposedly comino has a nice snorkling place, but 1000s of people get shipped in/out each day, so I didn't fancy it. | 15:36.37 |
| | Sitting around the pool is much more civilised. | 15:36.56 |
| henrys | and you have wireless I assume. | 15:38.06 |
| robin_watts_mac | yea. | 15:38.16 |
| kens | OK heading off, goodnight all | 16:53.20 |
| hjim | Hello, I see there is interest in providing additional languages for Ghostscript (bug 692024 is marked as bountiable). I can do a Norwegian translation. Will that be worth a bounty, i.e. USD? | 20:41.45 |
| sebras | robin_watts_mac: some patches have whitespace damage. | 23:03.06 |
