Hey Olivier, You might want to take a look at the PDF file for the sample chapter: In Evince, I could only see the images and page footers; text was blank, and highlighting did not make it visible. Converting it to ePub with Calibre brought the text back, but the page layouts were so badly chopped up that I could not make sense of them. Ironically, the only thing I found that would make the PDF readable here, was to import it into the GIMP. I found a script to export the layers as images, and used Imagemagick to make them into a PDF for convenient reading. (Ironic?) BTW that script rocks: http://registry.gimp.org/node/25394 This shows up at File > Layers next to the other Export commands. My result is readable but not good enough to distribute for promotional purposes. I have not read it yet but it looks promising and I will comment later... :o) Steve _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
