Bug ID: 380154
Summary: Please add "Rulers" option to Okular
Product: okular
Version: unspecified
Platform: unspecified
OS: unspecified
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: okular-de...@kde.org
Reporter: yousifjka...@yahoo.com
Target Milestone: ---
Hi. Currently Okular has no "Rulers" option to enable units measures by mm,
inch & pt (PostScript points) units within document like PDF files.
I did not select specific backend for this issue because I feel that this will
be very useful for many format.
But frankly speaking, I'm concerned with PDF. If you accept to add this option,
please please give support to "pt" units (PostScript points) because there is
other program (only open source application available for Linux which give
outline editor) will get benefit from this. This program is: jPDFTweak:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/jpdftweak/
http://jpdftweak.sourceforge.net/manual/index.html
Problem of this program is that it need 2nd program (as viewer) for user to add
an outline !! 2nd program should show position of mouse position (width X
hight) for user need to use hight value for needed outline. Measure should be
in PostScript points. Currently developer recommend to use "GSview" program for
that:

However, GSview is primitive viewer & somewhat ugly & it will be very nice to
be replaced by Okular as long as you refuse to add ability to edit/add outlines
of PDF to Okular .......
Best.
