Hi,

I have some suggestions and feature requests for Plucker:

1. Plucker currently takes too long to render the next or previous page
when scrolling (at least, too long compared to iSilo). I suppose that
this speed problem could be taken care of if Plucker pre-rendered the
next and previous pages while the current page is being viewed.
Displaying would then be much faster.

2. The ability to select text into the clipboard would be very nice.

3. Ability to export to other formats, particularly Doc or WordSmith
would also be nice. This is probably better implemented as a plugin that
understands the Plucker format than as an inbuilt feature, so that those
who don't need it can do away with the bloat. (Maybe reorganise plucker
into a PluckerLib, PluckerViewer and PluckerConverter?)

4. Printing support, for the entire page or selected area, using an
external print tool like PrintBoy.

5. Tables support, like iSilo has. Tables are very essential at times
like when I'm trying to pluckerize a conference schedule with multiple
parallel tracks. In this case, the table format is more important than
the hassle of sidescrolling.

Hoping to see Plucker have these features soon. Thanks for the great
app!
