Subject: doc-view: Document quality and find-file
Date: Mon, 17 Sep 2007 11:17:30 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87ejgxjp85.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)
Hi all,
I'm a student, and I've been making lots of use of the new doc-view PDF
viewer since the year started. (I'd been hoping for an Emacs PDF reader for
a while, because trying to look at xpdf and Emacs at the same time is kind
of annoying, especially when trying to, well, do anything (xpdf is fine, of
course--just another application to deal with, and which pops up
windows...)) The searching-within-a-PDF function is particularly useful, but
the whole thing makes things more convenient.
Anyway, I have a couple of questions.
(1) Is there any way to increase the image quality? The letters of the PDF
files seem to end up somewhat butchered, making some hard to read. (I am
reading in English, if that information comes in handy.)
(2) When using "M-x doc-view" to find a file, Emacs tries very hard to
ignore PDF files and will actually just complete around them when doing
this (i.e., if a directory contains a PDF file and another directory
and I press <TAB>, it'll just complete the directory without popping up
a completions buffer, per the standard behavior of find-file). Though
this behavior is normally beneficial, has anyone come up with a hack to
circumvent it when using doc-view in particular?
Thanks to Tassilo Horn for writing this package and to the folks whom I've
seen contributing on this list!
Thanks,
Amy
