Hi,
* What is it ?
==============
Evince is a document viewer for multiple document formats like pdf, postscript,
and many others. The goal of evince is to replace the multiple document viewers
that exist on the GNOME Desktop, like ggv, gpdf, and xpdf with a
single simple application.
http://www.gnome.org/projects/evince/
* What's changed ?
==================
New Features:
* new backend to support DJVU files.
* new backend to support DVI.
* Initial implementation of doc metadata. No UI for this yet,
though we respect docs requesting UI changes.
* support application/x-gzpostscript
* consolidate mime handling code so thumbnailer and main page
can use them. Thumbnail all types we support.
* Respect document orientation
* Implement print and save a copy for the ps backend.
* Badass completion of the document in the entry. Only works
with GTK+ >= 2.7.1
* User docs
Bug Fixes:
* Faster Zooming
* Clean up Schemas
* README added.
* Small rework of sidebar code. Now sidebar pages should
* implement
EvSidebarPage interface.
* lots of small bug fixes
* Actually fix the "FIXME: update priority" comment.
* Update egg-recent from libegg. This should fix long startup
problem.
Interface Improvements:
* Shift + Space scrolls up.
* Removed fullscreen toolbar hard-coded style
* Fix normal size zoom. Make zoom in/zoom out unsensitive when
they are behyond the limits.
* Doesn't show resize grip when maximized
* don't draw border in fullscreen
* Doesn't show thumbnails if document has 1 page. Make sidebar
menu entries sensitive only if if they have sense.
* Work around the Escape conflict (find bar and unfullscreen)
* Save accelerators on exit.
* Add Edit->Find Next
Translations:
* Make all toolbar items translatable
* ru (Nickolay Shmyrev)
* Where can I get it ?
