qpdfview is a tabbed document viewer using Poppler, libspectre, DjVuLibre, CUPS and Qt, licensed under GPL version 2 or later.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The project homepage is "https://launchpad.net/qpdfview". The project maintainer is "Adam Reichold <adam.reichold@t-online.de>".

It depends on libQtCore, libQtGui. It also depends on libQtSvg, libQtSql, libQtDBus, libcups, resp. libz if SVG, SQL, D-Bus, CUPS, resp. SyncTeX support is enabled. It also depends on libmagic if Qt version 4 is used and libmagic support is enabled. The PDF plug-in depends on libQtCore, libQtXml, libQtGui and libpoppler-qt4 or libpoppler-qt5. The PS plug-in depends on libQtCore, libQtGui and libspectre. The DjVu plug-in depends on libQtCore, libQtGui and libdjvulibre. The Fitz plug-in depends on libQtCore, libQtGui and libmupdf.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Fitz plug-in is currently considered experimental due to the lack of a maintainer. It also lacks support for various features, e.g. meta-data, encryption, text search, text extraction, form fields and annotations.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It is built using "lrelease qpdfview.pro", "qmake qpdfview.pro" and "make". It is installed using "make install". The installation paths are defined in "qpdfview.pri".

The following build-time options are available:
|
||
|
|
* 'without_svg' disables SVG support, i.e. fallback and application-specific icons will not be available.
|
||
|
|
* 'without_sql' disables SQL support, i.e. restoring tabs, bookmarks and per-file settings will not be available.
|
||
|
|
* 'without_dbus' disables D-Bus support, i.e. the '--unique' command-line option will not be available.
|
||
|
|
* 'without_pkgconfig' disables the use of pkg-config, i.e. compiler and linker options have to be configured manually in "qpdfview.pri".
|
||
|
|
* 'without_pdf' disables PDF support, i.e. the PDF plug-in using Poppler will not be built.
|
||
|
|
* 'without_ps' disables PS support, i.e. the PS plug-in using libspectre will not be built.
|
||
|
|
* 'without_djvu' disables DjVu support, i.e. the DjVu plug-in using DjVuLibre will not be built.
|
||
|
|
* 'with_fitz' enables Fitz support, i.e. the Fitz plug-in using MuPDF will be built.
|
||
|
|
* 'without_image' disable image support, i.e. the plug-in using Qt's built-in image I/O will not be built.
|
||
|
|
* 'static_pdf_plugin' links the PDF plug-in statically (This could lead to linker dependency collisions.)
|
||
|
|
* 'static_ps_plugin' links the PS plug-in statically. (This could lead to linker dependency collisions.)
|
||
|
|
* 'static_djvu_plugin' links the DjVu plug-in statically. (This could lead to linker dependency collisions.)
|
||
|
|
* 'static_fitz_plugin' links the Fitz plug-in statically. (This could lead to linker dependency collisions.)
|
||
|
|
* 'static_image_plugin' links the image plug-in statically.
|
||
|
|
* 'without_cups' disables CUPS support, i.e. the program will attempt to rasterize the document instead of requesting CUPS to print the document file.
|
||
|
|
* 'without_synctex' disables SyncTeX support, i.e. the program will not perform forward and inverse search for sources.
|
||
|
|
* 'without_magic' disables libmagic support, i.e. the program will determine file type using the file suffix.
|
||
|
|
* 'without_signals' disabled support for UNIX signals, i.e. the program will not save bookmarks, tabs and per-file settings on receiving SIGINT or SIGTERM.
|
||
|
|
* 'with_lto' enables link time optimizations for the application binary to reduce its size and improve its performance.
|
||
|
|
* 'static_resources' to statically embed resources like translations and online help into the application binary.
|
||
|
|
* 'plugin_resolve_all' to enable early symbol resolution in plug-ins to be more robust when incompatible libraries are installed.
|
||
|

For example, if one wants to build the program without support for CUPS and PostScript, one could run "qmake CONFIG+="without_cups without_ps" qpdfview.pro" instead of "qmake qpdfview.pro".

The fallback and application-specific icons are derived from the Tango icon theme available at "http://tango.freedesktop.org".
