Hi listers,
A while back the crappy display of line-art by Acrobat was mentioned on
this list. Someone mentioned that Quartz does this much better. I
figured it should be a one-liner to create a viewer that is good enough
to give presentations through quartz. If you take into account that I am
a Ph.d. student in physics (and therefore count as 1, 2, many...), it
was indeed a one-liner...;-)
You can find this _limited_ program on
http://www.nat.vu.nl/~sneep/newsletter_answer.php?id=28
(See the link near the top of the page).
Limitations:
- Only uses the main screen for display.
- Once in full screen mode, you can't go back to window-mode, your
option is to quit the program. The program will not crash, but getting
back to windowing mode without crashing ws not possible for me. Anyone?
- fancy page transitions are not supported. This may be a blessing ;-)
- Read the help-file for all options. The help is displayed at the first
start-up and can be reached from the help menu. Please familiarize
yourself with the program before using is in front of a group...
In the package you'll find some other tools as well: a colorselector and
a ris2bib. Information is included in the dmg and on the page.
Please report typo's, bugs and solutions to me: sneep at nat.vu.nl
Take care,
Maarten Sneep
