Hi, There's a feature that I don't see in the roadmap, but I believe would be very useful for saving trees: I'd really like to be able to highlight part of the documents without having to print them and use a highlighter. As far as I know, no open source pdf reader has this option.
Since the search feature of evince kind of highlights the results, it shouldn't be very hard to implement, but maybe it would be better to wait for 'real' text selection. How to save this would be a problem, too. I don't know if PDF metadata allow this kind of things (maybe in comments ?) but I'm not sure that saving highlights directly in the document is a good idea. Saving those metadata separately (like image browsers save thumbnails) would allow different highlights for the same file, and a "save with highlights" option would allow to send an highlighted file to someone else. Anyway, would someone else be interested in this ? Yusei _______________________________________________ Evince-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evince-list
