No, it just needs to be tweaked on your system. By default, for some reason, everything is turned off in the file that controls that stuff: /sw/etc/xpdfrc . You'll either need to edit that, or copy it to your home directory as follows: cp /sw/etc/xpdfrc ~/.xpdfrc and then edit the .xpdfrc file. That piece of information probably ought to get put in the package description. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ Fink-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-users
