pdf icon for doing the compositing (1.06 KB, image/png)

Description Luis Villa 2005-01-12 11:18:41 UTC
It would be nice if evince thumbnailed the pdf's first page and we could use
that as the nautilus icon for the .pdf file.
Comment 1 Alexander Hunziker 2005-01-13 07:41:15 UTC
I had thought about that, too. It's OK with me, but I think they should still be
clearly discernable as PDF files. Overlaying a PDF icon may be an idea. Totem
does it with those film strips I think, a good idea IMHO.
Comment 2 Bryan W Clark 2005-01-27 18:24:15 UTC
This is in the TODO:
  http://cvs.gnome.org/viewcvs/evince/TODO?view=auto

Agreed, a little overlay of the PDF icon would be a nice thing.

small PDF overlay icon

I'm no artist, I've just taken part of this from the xpdf icon.  But this is
the small version of the icon that I used for the overlay.  You're welcome to
it for testing purposes.

Perhaps we can get diana, jimmac, or tigert to make something nice eventually.

SVG of the pdf logo.
Comment 6 Christian Neumair 2005-02-24 20:20:32 UTC
Do you want separate thumbnailers for the multiple file formats evince can
handle or instead use one common?

pdf icon for doing the compositing

Here is the patch for a simple thumbnailer. The .schemas instalation is not
working, I don't know why :)
Comment 9 Marco Pesenti Gritti 2005-03-03 10:13:11 UTC
I checked in a reworked version of this. I removed all the postscript part
because we dont generate thumbnails for postscript yet.
Thanks!

(this is untested until I'll be able to build a tree of GNOME head)

Btw, Bryan/Diana if there are aspects to tweak in the UI appeareance please let
me know.
