PdfViewer (app + library)

Downloads:  4929
Submitted:  Mar 20 2012
Updated:  Oct 1 2012

Description:

This is a simple program for viewing PDF files. There is also a library providing a PdfView widget which can be easily embedded in other programs.

The reason for writing this program is to have a lightweight Qt-only PDF viewer with the features that I want. As my time is limited, I probably won't have time to implement any feature requests for this program. Of course you should still post the requests, but they will likely end up in the TODO list. If you want to see additional features, sending patches will dramatically increase the chances of seeing the features implemented. Any developers are welcome to join this project.

Features:
  • "continuous" view mode (other view modes do not exist yet)

  • magnifying glass when clicking with the left mouse button on the page

  • reload PDF file when it is changed on disk by another program

  • links in "Table of Contents" are clickable

  • links in PDF file are clickable

  • search string in document

  • interface without menu bar (interface with menu bar can be obtained by changing the option in the configuration dialog and then restarting the program)

  • presentation mode

  • it is possible to modify the style of the buttons in the tool bar by clicking with the right mouse button on the toolbar

  • shortcut editing dialog

  • bookmarks mechanism

  • remember page positions and zoom factor per file throughout sessions

  • select image or text in a rectangular area

  • text selection

  • support for forward search and inverse search using synctex (it is also possible to compile this app+lib without synctex support)

  • printing

  • support for PDF forms


    • Note that the user interface can be completely controlled using the keyboard (except for the magnifying glass, selection and links). When no menu bar is shown, the items in the tool bar can be triggered using Alt + their accelerator. The "Open File" dialog can be accessed using the standard "Open" shortcut (in an English system this is usually "Ctrl+O").




    Changelog:

    version 0.7
    - add support for PDF forms
    - move mouse tool changing actions to the library
    - make sure the library is installed in /usr/lib64 when appropriate
    - add option to print multiple pages on one page

    Try compiling using qmake. Alternatively add -lz to target_link_libraries in lib/src/CMakeLists.txt and be so kind to report if this works.

    The problem should be solved in version 0.6 (also when using cmake).

     fillToc( pageNumber returns incorrect results

    Your usage of the attributes 'DestinationName' and 'Destination' are incorrect.

    The String returned from 'Destination' is the result of LinkDestination.toString() that was created when document()->toc() is called in 'fillInfo'. This is an Array of 10 values, where by the array[1] and array[5] are needed to create the PageNumber.

    Why your code in creating Poppler::LinkDestination fails I cannot say, but when
    ld = data.doc->doc->findDest( data.namedDest );
    is called, no result is found and it returns pageNumber 0.

    This means that when the toc is clicked in your demo application, it will allways move to page 1.

    Here is a small diff that will correct this:

    app_src_tocdoc.patch:
    diff -rupN original/tocdock.cpp modified/tocdock.cpp

    // const int pageNumber = doc->linkDestination(e.attribute(QString::fromLatin1("DestinationName")))->pageNumber();
    - Poppler::LinkDestination *dest = doc->linkDestination(e.attribute(QString::fromLatin1("DestinationName")));

    + const double pageNumber = sa_LinkDestination_Values[1].toDouble()+sa_LinkDestination_Values[5].toDouble();
    if (!parentItem) {
    newitem = new QTreeWidgetItem(tree, newitem);
    } else {

    ---end diff---

    after writing this I will also submit a diff to the poppler project to change the demo qt4 application so that it to will reacte correctly when a toc is clicked.
    I will quote this site, since it is your TocDock::goToPage slot logic that is missing in their 'toc.cpp' implementation.

    It would be nice if both demos would be updated so that the toc logic works correctly.
    Today any pdf-viewer where the toc does not work is in my opinion useless.
    Had the poppler project implemented in there demo, what you have allready done and docmented the return value of "Destination" properly (or at least showed the usage of it) - then I would not have had to spent hours searching for the cause of this.

    This has nothing to do with this project.
    It is caused by the poppler-qt4 Class that does not support built in Thumbnails.

    A bug has been submitted to correct this.

    In poppler/qt4/src/poppler-page.cc in function Page::thumbnail()

    the following code must be added
    [starting with the 'else']:
    if (r)
    {
    ..
    }
    else
    {
    ret=renderToImage();
    w=50;
    h=75;
    if (ret.width() > ret.height())
    {
    h=50;
    w=75;
    }
    ret = ret.scaled(w,h,Qt::IgnoreAspectRatio);
    }

     Persistent annotations

    Is it ever going to be possible to have persistant annotations like the latest Okular, that is, saved annotations which are readable by the recipients irrespective of their OSes?

    I don't like the tone of this question. Did you ever pay me for developing this software? Did you ever contribute a working, maintainable patch that doesn't break anything? No, you didn't. So accept the fact that I don't write the software for you, I write it for me. Be happy that you can use it without contributing anything. My free time is limited, so the features will take long to be implemented, unless you or someone else starts contributing. That's the whole point of open source software after all: the developer publishes the code so that others can contribute. Up to now that didn't happen, so tell me: why would I continue to publish this program on this site?

    There are many things to say against your screech, but I'll just say these:

    1. The tone of my question was COMPLETELY SINCERE AND NEUTRAL one. I was just curious if it's in your to do list or not, if it's achievable or not. It only needs a mean-sprited effort to mis-interpret it something (even) like that: "Hey developer, for god's sake, when will you implement this feature?"

    2. I will never ever use your app.

    "Is it ever going to be possible" sounds to me like "I am waiting for ages for this feature, so when is it finally going to be implemented?" A better phrasing would have been: "Are there any plans to implement persistent annotations?" or "Is it going to be possible in the future to have persistent annotations?"

    If there is anything else wrong in my remark, I would be happy to learn it.

    Dear Glad,
    thank you for your great work on pdfview. I especially appreciate that the program is very lightweight and with clean source code. I started my own fork, tuned to my specific personal needs:
    https://github.com/amkhlv/pdfviewer

    Please keep working on pdfview, I think this is the best available PDF viewer.
    Andrei
