| <<<Back 1 day (to 2015/04/17) | 20150418 |
mvrhel_laptop | brb. have to get ethan a pizza | 00:00.57 |
Robin_Watts | Doing: git clone --recursive robin@ghostscript.com:/home/git/gsview.git gsview.git | 00:01.02 |
| Hmm. I see no submodules for gsview.git | 00:01.57 |
mvrhel_laptop | Robin_Watts: so you don't see a .gitmodules? | 00:27.57 |
| I thought that defined them | 00:28.22 |
| I was thinking that I probably should put them all in a different folder though | 00:30.03 |
| like how it is done in mupdf | 00:30.12 |
| instead of being up at the head | 00:30.19 |
Robin_Watts | I do see a .gitmodules | 00:34.31 |
| but git submodule update --init doesn't do anything. | 00:34.50 |
mvrhel_laptop | so I have noticed :( | 00:35.09 |
| well that is not true | 00:35.18 |
| for me if I do that up at the head | 00:35.24 |
| it just sits and claims to be doing the checkout | 00:35.43 |
Robin_Watts | I'm in gsview.git | 00:36.19 |
| and git submodule init does nothing. | 00:36.25 |
mvrhel_laptop | hmm | 00:36.32 |
Robin_Watts | nor does git submodule status. | 00:36.40 |
| I'm afraid I must go to bed... | 00:37.04 |
mvrhel_laptop | Robin_Watts: ok thanks! have a good weekend | 00:37.16 |
Robin_Watts | if you don't get anywhere, say so on here, and I might have a chance to prod at it later. | 00:37.29 |
| night! | 00:37.34 |
mvrhel_laptop | ok thanks | 00:37.36 |
| Robin_Watts: for the logs. I got the submodule stuff figured out. I think I did it incorrectly last time. I will get this committed later this weekend | 07:05.05 |
| bedtime now | 07:05.09 |
chrisl | kens: could you check your OS X setup to see if it has "Yu Mincho Medium.otf" on it? | 08:03.06 |
kens | OK give me a minute, its an old OS/X though | 08:03.22 |
| 10.8 Mountian Lion | 08:03.37 |
chrisl | It may be less old than mine - not sure what mine is | 08:03.51 |
| Yeh, mine is 10.6 | 08:05.01 |
kens | Any idea where to find fontws ? | 08:06.06 |
chrisl | Something line /System/Library/Fonts | 08:06.25 |
| s/line/like | 08:06.32 |
kens | THere are no fonts beginning with Y | 08:07.10 |
| 4 Chinese fotns though | 08:07.21 |
| Also STHeite Light and Medium | 08:07.39 |
chrisl | Yes, I have those, too. He's said he'll make the font available, so I'll just wait for that | 08:08.07 |
kens | OK I haven't got far enough yet to see what ths is about :-) | 08:08.22 |
chrisl | He says my change in the Type 1 charstring code is causing a crash when using an OTF font..... | 08:08.59 |
kens | Hmm, no doubt I'll get to the mail when I get to readng my mail | 08:09.19 |
chrisl | I only asked you because I was considering have a look at it this afternoon. But it can just wait | 08:10.42 |
kens | I thnk it'll have to | 08:10.52 |
| Can't do much without the font to look at. | 08:10.59 |
chrisl | Or a command line..... | 08:11.08 |
kens | Ah that too.... | 08:11.14 |
chrisl | Somewhat irritating as he's a developer | 08:12.18 |
kens | But not exactly unknown | 08:12.26 |
chrisl | No, but it never ceases to amaze me that developers don't consider what *they'd* need to investigate an issue, and make sure they give us enough to do so | 08:13.34 |
Robin_Watts | chrisl: I have yosemite here, and no fonts beginning with Y. | 08:17.05 |
chrisl | Hmm, okay, thanks. I guess it's part of the Japanese language install then. As I said, I'll wait for him to make it available..... | 08:17.57 |
| Right, normal Saturday service resumes....... | 08:20.40 |
qqz | can anyone hint me on how to do the following: DEVICEHEIGHT MediaBox.Upper 25 add sub 25 translate ? | 14:30.24 |
| i.e. how to retrieve the DeviceHeight and MediaBox coordinates inside a -c "..." command for ghostscript | 14:31.05 |
| I would need that to accomplish my inner-margin script for printers: at the moment it centers to the bottom but it should center to the top | 14:35.37 |
| I can do currentpagedevice /PageSize get aload pop | 15:02.15 |
| but what to do in order to get the MediaBox? | 15:02.39 |
| Why does "currentpagedevice /.HWMargins get aload pop" return all zeroes at me? | 15:09.18 |
| how can I navigate to the first page on the command line? | 15:11.44 |
| .. I just needed to know how to retrieve the MediaBox | 15:18.22 |
| then I would be ready | 15:18.27 |
| how to get the MediaSize of the current input page with gs -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -dFIXEDMEDIA -dDEVICEWIDTHPOINTS=600 -dDEVICEHEIGHTPOINTS=1000 -dBATCH -dQUIET -dNOPAUSE -sOutputFile=quadratic.pdf -c "..." -f input.pdf ?? | 15:56.19 |
| it is clear how to get the output size i.e. 600x1000 | 15:56.43 |
| but how to get the input page size (the MediaBox of it)? | 15:57.13 |
| to get 1000 I can simply do: currentpagedevice /PageSize get aload pop exch | 15:57.36 |
| isn`t there something like currentinputpage on the contrast to currentpagedevice? | 15:59.30 |
Guest44634 | how can I retrieve the MediaBox of the current input page? | 17:01.58 |
qqz | is it possible at all to get the media box before a page is rendered? | 17:53.55 |
pipitas | qqz: I've seen in IRC logs that you (a few days ago) tried to set PageSize via some /.HWMargins magic | 17:57.29 |
| qqz: You should try this: gs -o 100x200-page.pdf -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -c "/Install <</PageSize [100 200]>> setpagedevice showpage" | 17:58.05 |
qqz | pipitas: this is a completely different question now | 17:58.14 |
| the first question is already resolved since long | 17:58.36 |
pipitas | qqz: so your old question was solved? | 17:58.39 |
qqz | actually yes; I forgot to say; thx. | 17:58.55 |
pipitas | qqz: Sorry, I didn't read todays backlogs yet. And I dunno if I have the time⦠| 17:59.02 |
qqz | if I do something like currentpagedevice /PageSIze get I will always get the same value for each page: what I have specified via -dDEVICEHEIGHTPOINTS=1000 | 18:00.32 |
| but I actually wanna know how much content there will be for the current page (basically just the height) | 18:01.02 |
| i.e. I need to get the upper value of the MediaBox or so for each page | 18:01.28 |
| just as pdf_info does | 18:01.50 |
kens | qqz you could look at pdf_info.ps.... | 18:20.13 |
qqz | kens: where to get the right pdf_info.ps? | 18:32.33 |
| is there any way to use ghostscript but non-postscript commands on the command line with gs -c ? like f.i. PDFPageCount?? | 20:04.12 |
