Ghostview is an X11 interface for ghostscript 2.4 and later. It features:
|
|
|
|
- Ghostview parses any known version of Adobe's Document Structuring
|
|
Conventions.
|
|
- Page size is automatically determined from the Document Structuring
|
|
Comments. The user is able to override the values from the comments.
|
|
- Window size is set to the bounding box for Encapsulated PostScript figures.
|
|
- Default page size is Letter and can be changed via Xresources or
|
|
application defaults file to A4 (or any other valid size) for our
|
|
European friends.
|
|
- Scrollbars appear when necessary.
|
|
- Page orientation is automatically determined from the Document Structuring
|
|
Comments. The user is able to override the values from the comments.
|
|
- Ability to view at 4 orientations: Portrait, Landscape, Upside-down,
|
|
and Seascape (for those who rotate landscape the other direction).
|
|
- Ability to restrict rendering to grayscale or monochrome. (Requires
|
|
ghostscript 2.6.1.)
|
|
- Ability to mark pages for printing, or saving. (Good for people that
|
|
printed a 100 page document and lost page 59 due to a printer jam.)
|
|
- Can popup zoom windows at printer resolution
|
|
(1 display dot = 1 printer dot).
|
|
|
|
The Ghostview distribution includes a Ghostview Widget that people are
|
|
encouraged to use in other programs.
