zathura - a PDF viewer

jelly · 2010-06-28 11:36:01

I have a few questions:
How does the tab support work? i can't find the keybindings for it.
And how do you export an image out of an pdf?

I like zathura somuch, i use it as my main pdf reader atm.

You need to install tabbed. If you start tabbed it will print the xid to the standard output that you have to give zathura on startup: zathura -e xid.

Nice feature, but how does selecting and copying with the mouse work? I only manage to draw boxes without any effect...

Try Shift-Insert 'ing the text you marked in a xterm

golwin · 2010-06-29 13:58:05

Heh, alright. Misunderstanding. I thought about marking and copying the text of the pdf

No, that _is_ what I meant. Mark text in zathura, and then go to shift-ins it in a terminal. Normally it will be pasted there... I was not clear enough, sorry.

golwin · 2010-06-29 14:24:57

Oh, great. So simple that I haven't even thought about it I expected some kind of cursor to drag around (like for example in evince) instead of the rubberband box.
Thanks a lot

I understand that system with <C- being a prefix to invoke Control but what is the correct prefix for shift?

greetings,

lordmetroid · 2010-07-01 21:07:00

Probably S for shift.

Yes, but it should be enough to just write the uppercase letter or the sign.

map ! quit

There should be an option to continuosly scroll, without jumping to the next page at the end of the page. And when it i in fit width mode <space> jumps to the next page and skips the part of the page not shown, is there a workaround to this?

<C-f> will jump one viewport down, and <C-d> will jump half a viewport down.

The default mapping for space is navigate next, but if you want you can instead map it to scroll half_down or full_down in your zathurarc.

map <Space> scroll half_down
map <Space> scroll full_down

It's possible to open the print dialog box when printing? Sometimes I want to print odd pages first, and the even pages later but I can't figure out how to do that in zathura.

Check out the latest git version, it is now possible to append any parameters to the print command. I guess it should work then in the following way:

:print printer 1-10 -o page-set=even

hi, first, very nice program, this is exactly what i want (vim keys and configurable colors = saves my arms and my eyes)

i put in zathurarc:
set recolor_darkcolor FFFFFF
set recolor_lightcolor 888888

but nothing happens when i press ^i

why?

Try chaning it to #FFFFFF and #888888

kismet010 · 2010-07-06 16:20:57

In attempting to reproduce kismet010's problem, I think I found a bug. The set command (presumably others too) does not work if you have multiple spaces between the arguments. This is true in both the rc file and as a command in zathura.

Thanks, I'll look into that.

Just a quick question to continuous scrolling.
Just updated to the latest git a few days ago and it seems that continuous scrolling is now enabled by default.
Is there an easy way for me to turn it off again?

Kind of got used to using the 'Page' keys to flip pages and arrow keys to navigate within a page.:wq

Is it possible to change the browser zathura uses via zathurarc?

For example, the following does not work:

set uri_command "jumanji '%s'"; /* uri */

set browser jumanji %s

should do it.

Can you please give me a link where I can download this PDF? But I am pretty sure this is a poppler isue (try opening it with evince or epdfview).
