Hi folks!
Is there anybody in the community who wants the possibility to simulate
overprint in qt library?
With the implementation of DeviceN support in splash this is quite easy
now, so I can upload a patch.
Sure, why not? Let's see the patch :-)
Okay, here it is.
The two new methods are missing @since markers (and also i think the
documentation of the two methods could be a bit more explanatory)
@since: I thought that You insert it when You commit it. If I would
insert 0.22.0 You have to change it if You will not have the time to
commit it :-) or I need to change it and have to upload a new patch if
You will not have the time :-(
Explanatory: Okay, but this will be hard. For those who know what
overprint is the documentation is self-explanatory, for others I need to
write reams. What's about to insert the link to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overprinting?
Also why are you calling it "overprint preview"? How is it a preview?
To be honest, I haven't really thought about that. Probably I choose
that name because it is also introduced in GlobalParams with that name.
But also in the acrobat reader preferences it is called "Use overprint
preview". And because not all RIPs support it (i.e. RGB printers) it is
indeed something like a preview (for RIPs which support it).
Given that overprint only works if defined(SPLASH_CMYK) you should make the
setter return a boolean that says if the set worked or not (i.e. make it fail
if !defined(SPLASH_CMYK))
Gotcha. I thought about that and disable / enable the option in okular
if the format generator doesn't support it. But because I'm not familiar
enough with okular I defered it and then forgot it...
I'll insert it in QT when I get answers to the other points.
Cheers,
Thomas

In a few places it has already a similar
implementation than in bug 50992 (thread safe), because changing the
overprint option also meant that we need a different SplashOutputDev
instance. But You probably also want to test it in okular? Even if we
are here not on an okular list, I attach the okular patch here, too.
Also here, it has already the changes from bug 50992. But because
POPPLER_QT_THREADSAFE is not defined here, it doesn't make any
difference, so I let these changes as they are. BTW, I'm not really
familiar with qt programming, so most changes in okular are more or less
a (hopefully) best guess.
Cheers,
Thomas

For everybody who doesn't know anything about overprint I attach three
screenshots which shows the implementation in okular.
(This is not fake, I made a small apprentice piece today morning :-) )
Cheers,
Thomas
