PDF Viewer for X-Slacko? [SOLVED]

#1 Post by starhawk »

I'd like a PDF viewer that actually will work properly for me... there are some PDFs I have (mostly electronics datasheets) that ePDFView doesn't like... I tried drag'n'drop into Chromium and it just gives me a download box!

A *working* dotPET of eVince (the 2.30 pet on the forum says "PDF format not supported" :( ) or a dotPET of Foxit, would probably do the trick.

I'm running X-Slacko 1.1 -- it's based on Slacko Puppy 56 IIRC.

Can anyone help?

Evince 2.30.3

You probably don't have some libs for Evince 2.30.3:

libpoppler-glib.so.4.0.0 & libpoppler.so.5.0.0

I have these, but 757k is too big to attach here. Works well.

The pet http://distro.ibiblio.org/puppylinux/pe ... wheezy.pet has some missing libs - attached below (they go in /usr/lib).

This gives some error messages, but appears to work.

Thanks SO MUCH. I'll update the thread title to reflect that this issue has been [SOLVED].
