Not dozen, only 2~3 but code independent .My choices are 1) xpdf (same codebase of luatex) 2)acroread (the most important viewer for pdf ) 3) ghostscript (also used by context ) They are all used / important for TeX community and printing house. mupdf comes from ghostscript team , it's quick but young, it comes with some interesting cmdline tools . Until now I was not able to use it as viewer in everyday use, so I don't know if it's good or not for checking pdf made by luatex I believe that Taco knows mupdf better than me. -- luigi ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
