Hi Matthew, When you select "Open" the file is open from /tmp, so that's basically the cache of your browser.
I don't find an external viewer uncomfortable, I even find it pretty logical since when I open "report.pdf" on my home folder I see Evince, so when I open "new-report.pdf" on www.reports.com I expect to see Evince instead of another browser window. I think that having PDF files open in the browser could make some people think "so Epiphany is a browser or a all-seeing-app?". Of course people that knew about browser plugins doesn't ask themselves that. That's my humble opinion, I think it's more friendly and consistent. See ya :) On 11/11/06, Matthew Paul Thomas <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Nov 11, 2006, at 4:28 AM, Reinout van Schouwen wrote: > > ... > > Yes, and I've never really understood why people think that it's > > better to view a PDF in the browser than to open a dedicated viewer > > for it. > > ... > > For the same reason that it's better to view an HTML page in the > browser than to open a dedicated viewer for it: fewer clicks required. > > (For most of the PDFs I read, I have no interest in keeping them, so > saving a copy anywhere other than my browser cache is a waste of time.) > > -- > Matthew Paul Thomas > http://mpt.net.nz/ > > _______________________________________________ > epiphany-list mailing list > [email protected] > http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/epiphany-list > -- "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win" -Ghandi http://diego.aureal.com.pe _______________________________________________ epiphany-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/epiphany-list
