| sebras | there's few more patches for robin at sebras/shadings. there's a problem with the radial shadings that I haven't hashed out yet. very visible in 2.7.3colorpatch-patt_x1a.pdf and 2.7.1colorpatch-devn_x1a.pdf at high zoom levels. | 00:00.50 |
| | I can't reproduce this issue before moving axial/radial shadings to the same code path as mesh-based shadings. but at this point I'm unsure why these white lines appear... | 00:01.31 |
| Robin_Watts | sebras: I can't say why it doesn't cause problems for things other than the shadings. What other things do we use trig for? | 00:02.25 |
| sebras | paths for one. | 00:02.37 |
| | fz_rotate. | 00:03.04 |
| | and ps fucntions. | 00:03.15 |
| | and lanczos[23]() which we seem not to use! | 00:08.23 |
| sebras | zzzs. | 00:09.51 |
| ball | What do people use on MS Windows 7 to create a PostScript file? On XP I think I used to install an Apple Color LaserWriter driver with the "print to file" option, but I don't see a Windows 7 driver for that. | 03:06.27 |
| ray_laptop | For the logs (ball asked earlier) on Windows 7 install a "local" printer and use the "File" port, then select the "Generic" category and select the "Microsoft Publisher Color Printer". This will install a generic PostScript printer. | 04:49.55 |
| | This is the simplest one to use. In the "Devices and Printes" dialog screen, you can select the printer and then use the "File" / "Printer Properties" / "Device Settings" to determine whether the generated PostScript is Binary or ASCII (I recommend Binary) and the Font Sizes to download as outline vs. bitmap (I recommend that the 'Minimum" be 5 pixels) since outlines will be scalable without... | 05:00.28 |
| | ...showing "jaggies" | 05:00.30 |
| | You probably don't need to mess with the "Font Substitution Table" | 05:01.43 |
| | This uses the familiar PSCRIPT5.DLL to generate PostScript, and works fine with Ghostscript. | 05:02.45 |
| sebras | Robin_Watts: hm.. I wonder if the tri winding is wrong... | 10:44.48 |
| | also the enumeration of the points in a quad seems strange. at least not consistent with what I expected. | 10:45.44 |
| Robin_Watts | The order of points in a quad is the same as it ever was. | 10:46.20 |
| | The direction of drawing points in a patch is odd, but is correct, I believe. | 10:46.48 |
| | I made a file with 4 patches that self obscured a while ago, and had to tweak various things to ensure that they all drew the same as acrobat. | 10:47.22 |
| sebras | Robin_Watts: no, paint_quad() and fz_paint_quad() enumerate the points for the triangles differently. | 10:47.34 |
| Robin_Watts | Ah, well, that's probably wrong then. | 10:47.50 |
| sebras | I think so. | 10:48.04 |
| Robin_Watts | but the one I just wrote (paint_quad, I think) is definitely the same as the old code. | 10:48.22 |
| sebras | oh? I'm puzzled. | 10:48.47 |
| ball | Does ghostscript have something that can convert PostScript to Canon UFR? | 13:24.57 |
| henrys | marcosw1:I've upgraded the macpro cluster node and probably broke something. | 16:35.15 |
| sebras | Robin_Watts: found it. now sebras/shadings looks better. | 19:00.51 |
| | the commit messages are not good, but my intentions is that you should pick some of them an squash with your own patch. | 19:01.15 |
| | if you want to keep them separate let me know. | 19:01.53 |
| | and if you think they aren't good tell me. :) | 19:02.15 |
| | ok, so I make a patch that moves the trig functions to fitz-internal.h as well. | 20:06.19 |
| | and improved the commit messages | 20:06.24 |
| | my test case .pdfs for shadings look ok. I'll leave it for now. | 20:07.16 |
| | Robin_Watts: my patches appear to pass through sane. | 23:57.51 |
| | Forward 1 day (to 2012/10/01)>>> | |
