Re: [evince] Petition for underlines and

[Clément Jacquard <clement jacquard gmail com>]

Hello guys !

I respond to Hector Jimenez email.

I have been using evince since ... 2005 ? I have been very satisfied but now I start needing to add annotations to documents I review. I find the annotations management is still pretty poor and I would like to be able to do it with evince.

I believe evince in written in C, I can code Python and I learnt a little bit of C++ so I would be very glad to help in the development of this software I have used for years.

Here are the things I would like to see in evince :

- underline text by just using a button in the toolbar before or after selection (as well with key shortcut)

- highlight text the same way described above

- bar (is that the right verb ?) text as described above

- add annotation for any underlined/highlighted/barred text. The annotation would lie in a small preview window that could be expanded by clicking it (to fully read) and dragged anywhere on the page, linked by a line to the associated piece of text. Annotation preview window would pop up by default in the margins of the document.

- And many more I don't think about right now.

I don't know nothing about pdf management, pdf interoperability and I have never done collaborative development but if the devs want free workforce to code when they are caring of their wifes and children, I will be very happy to work !

Please guys if you are interested, throw me documentation and food for thought.

Thanks a lot for evince.

Best
