Yet Another Version

Posted in Projects, ePDFView at 7:42 pm by Jordi Fita

As finally I’ve added print support to ePDFView I decided to release version 0.1.5 today.

Besides the print support, this version also handles Internet hyperlinks and is able to save document’s copies. I’ve also fixed some bugs (thanks baze to report them!) and also some minor interface improvements; I’m very happy with the new keyboard navigation, thanks LoneFox.

Unfortunately, this time Moritz Heiber couldn’t update the German translation for work reasons. I hope it goes smooth with your new destination. The French and Vietnamese translations were updated, as always, by Mr_Moustache and VnPenguin, respectively. Thanks to all.

Printing from ePDFView

Posted in Projects, ePDFView at 9:33 pm by Jordi Fita

Finally! I’ve added printing support for ePDFView.

Currently only CUPS is supported, although I don’t see any problem with it as it’s possibly the most used GNU/Linux’s printing system. Of course, since it’s my first time I add printing support to an application, there’s still somethings missing like support for preferences or color modes (thanks baze for reporting them).

The print dialog is “strongly based” on Gnome’s print dialog, although not that beautiful. I think it’s pretty functional, though.

I expect to resolve the current issues and release version 0.1.5 this week :-)

Game Development Contests

Posted in Uncategorized at 9:36 pm by Jordi Fita

Yesterday GameDev’s Four Elements V contest began. In short, the aim of this contest is to make a game based around four elements.I couldn’t participate in the previous edition and I’m not really sure if I will participate in this one, but this time I feel a lot more motivated to do so.

I also found that the people behind the GP2X also started a contest. If I’m fast maybe I can make a single game for both competitions although I have no chance to win on neither, due to my ability to create only crappy programmer’s art ;-)

Edit 2006-06-05: The Summer ‘06 72 Hour Game Development Competition is also going to be this July. I guess summer is a good time for a game competitions ;-)
