It seems a valid alternative to xpdf

Minimal and fast... but file reload does not seem possible, so not useful in a normal TeX workflow.

C code looks clear -- shoud be not difficult to extend it to mimic xpdf Eventually for a sprint at meeting -- luigi

The more serious problem is that it does not interaction objects at all, not even bookmarks or hyperlinks. Best wishes, Taco

Oops sorry, it does indeed do in-document hyperlinks.

================================== ABOUT MuPDF is a lightweight PDF viewer and toolkit written in portable C. The renderer in MuPDF is tailored for high quality anti-aliased graphics. MuPDF renders text with metrics and spacing accurate to within fractions of a pixel for the highest fidelity in reproducing the look of a printed page on screen. MuPDF has a small footprint. A binary that includes the standard Roman fonts is only one megabyte. A build with full CJK support (including an Asian font) is approximately five megabytes. MuPDF has support for all non-interactive PDF 1.7 features, and the toolkit provides a simple API for accessing the internal structures of the PDF document. Example code for navigating interactive links and bookmarks, encrypting PDF files, extracting fonts, images, and searchable text, and rendering pages to image files is provided. ==================================== I haven't find an example for bookmarks . -- luigi

well, so maybe there can be a luatex binding to replace original xpdf? and we can remove cpp code completely in LuaTeX... (and that enable the plan 9 guys to compile luatex on those exotic systems.) On Fri, Jul 24, 2009 at 6:08 PM, luigi scarso wrote:

until know, the most attractive thing is $> pdfdraw -x a.pdf -x xml dump of display tree -- luigi

Not yet. And mupdf isn't what I'm looking at. GNUPF... Best Martin

New subject: Re-start figure numbers

Hello, I placed 150+ tiny images (distributed over several chapters) and want continuous figure numbering for the whole publication, so I have set up numbering like this: \setupnumbering[satus=start,way=bytext] At the end of the document, I repeated the same images but now in larger format, with captions added etc. I would like to restart their numbering, so the figure-numbers of the large images match the small ones but \startnumbering[state=stop] does not have any effect. Is there any other way of stopping/restarting figure numbering? Thanks a lot, Femke

try to compile changing Jamrules from CCFLAGS = -Wall -std=gnu99 ; LINKFLAGS = -L/usr/X11R6/lib ; to CCFLAGS = -Wall -std=gnu99 -I/usr/X11/include -I/usr/X11/include/freetype2 ; LINKFLAGS = -L/usr/X11R6/lib -L/sw/lib ; -- luigi
