[Gimp-user] Index for Gimp manual
The pdf file for the Gimp Users Manual. Dec 2005 edition does not come with an index. I am thinking of preparing my own (which I will share of course.) Has anyone found an index to this manual on the site? -- John Culleton Books with answers to marketing and publishing questions: http://wexfordpress.com/tex/shortlist.pdf Book coaches, consultants and packagers: http://wexfordpress.com/tex/packagers.pdf ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
[Gimp-user] Presets
I want to change some of the presets for Gimp 2.3.7. I did this once before but I don't remember which files store the information. The presets I am particularly intersted in changing are the ones for the units on the image window rulers and some things on the PostScript file save menu. Can anyone point me to the right source code modules? -- John Culleton Books with answers to marketing and publishing questions: http://wexfordpress.com/tex/shortlist.pdf Book coaches, consultants and packagers: http://wexfordpress.com/tex/packagers.pdf ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

Has anyone found an index to this manual on the site? The manual is written in Docbook XML. It should be a lot easier to generate a PDF that contains an index than to attempt to create one manually. Especially since the manual index will be outdated pretty soon. The manual is undergoing changes on a daily basis.

There is a page for it but no index. So someone needs to run LaTeX or pdflatex twice to get the index properly included in the pdf file. If the html version has an index, and the pagination is the same as the pdf file, I can use that index instead of course. -- John Culleton Books with answers to marketing and publishing questions: http://wexfordpress.com/tex/shortlist.pdf Book coaches, consultants and packagers: http://wexfordpress.com/tex/packagers.pdf ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

When you say the manual is undergoing changes on a daily basis are you referring to the downloadable pdf or just the html versions? The date on the manual I downloaded was December 28, 2005. I assume it is the latest pdf version. Best, John Culleton ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

Feel free to have a closer look to docs.gimp.org and read the How to get involved section to learn how the gimp docs project is organized. When you say the manual is undergoing changes on a daily basis are you referring to the downloadable pdf or just the html versions? The date on the manual I downloaded was December 28, 2005. I assume it is the latest pdf version. both - html and pdf versions are more or less automatically build from docbook (xml) sources. Since building the html files is much more robust to inconsintencies like missing image files etc. they are available in more recent versions than the pdf files are. Building them is more art then science right now... ... feel free to get involved!

[Gimp-user] tif support
Hi everyone, I run Gimp on Mandriva 2006.kernel 2.6.12-12 I uninstalled the standard Gimp installation from the Mandriva cd's in order to install Gimp 2.3.6 It compiled reasonably well but I did get the error that I couldn't have tif support so I used the 'without tif support' option. Now, of course, I would like to add that missing tif support. Is there a tutorial or web page detailing the process.

AFAIK you merely need to have libtiff installed and then configure will find it. look at config.log or similar after a ./configure and you should see whether or not it has been detected. if it hasn't i would try an 'ldconfig make clean ./configure' or similar. the README doesn't appear to indicate you need to explicitly declare TIFF support at ./configure. julian -- __ _ ___ ___| |___ __| |_ _ __ __ _ _ _| |__ ___ (_-/ -_) / -_) _| _| '_ \/ _` | '_| / /(_- /__/\___|_\___\__|\__| .__/\__,_|_| |_\_\/__/ |_http://selectparks.net/~julian ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
