Please fix the icon in the desktop file.

Hello, I would like to ask if you can provide a matching icon for gpdf because the one named in the desktop file isn't present on a sane installed GNOME system.
Well, I don't have that icon either. I just left the line in the .desktop and was waiting for a bug report. So now I have to find an icon.
Maybe you could ask Jimmac to paint you one.
I talked to Jimmac yesterday. He's currently quite busy. He showed me pdf viewer icons he has done in the past. Unfortunately, they feature the Acrobat logo (which is trademarked... and the logo of a competing pdf viewer ;). Do you have a good idea of what a good icon for gpdf should show?
Hmm I don't know. Either Jimmac or Tigert could help you but right now I don't know what kind of Icon you should use. I think you should simply take one of Jimmacs and include it meanwhile until someone else draws a new one. You can also look at art.gnome.org under Icons (Or was it Others) and look if you find something there.
I'll use the icon for PDF documents for now.
Hmm, it doesn't exist in a default GNOME installation, that is showing no icon.
The default icon theme ('gnome') includes a gnome-pdf.png icon. btw, I think the logo used in the icon is the logo of Adobe PDF and not Adobe Acrobat. At least the only place I saw it when browsing the Adobe web site is on the "What is Adobe PDF?" page. It's not on the Acrobat page. diff -uNr gpdf.orig/gpdf.desktop.in gpdf/gpdf.desktop.in --- gpdf.orig/gpdf.desktop.in 2003-07-17 12:23:10.000000000 -0300 +++ gpdf/gpdf.desktop.in 2003-07-17 12:23:56.000000000 -0300 @@ -3,7 +3,7 @@ _Name=PDF file viewer _Comment=Tool for viewing PDF files Exec=gpdf -Icon=document-icons/gnome-application-pdf.png +Icon=gnome-pdf.png Terminal=false Type=Application Categories=GNOME;Application;Graphics;VectorGraphics;Viewer;
Ok, seems to be a good solution temporarely. Can we now close this report ?
Sure, thanks for the notice.
