Hi @ousia mupdf 1.17 is now built in copr. Feel free to report here, I'll wait a bit before I push to rawhide.
Hi @mjg,
many thanks for the new build. It has some interesting improvements.
BTW, I have a question about the UI font.
MuPDF uses a serif font. In my opinion (my eyes always agree), a sans font would be way more readable.
I reported this issue in the past and they rejected the suggestion. I really appreciate that MuPDF could a sans font for UI text display.
Since MuPDF already uses serif (and I don’t want to change that), do you think it could be proposed as a compilation option?
Many thanks for your help.
My eyes completely agree with yours about UI fonts.
You care about the UI fonts for mupdf-gl
, right? mupdf-gl
is hardcoded to look for the builtin fonts Charis SIL
and Times
in file platform/gl/gl-font.c
. I guess replacing Charis SIL
there with, say, DroidSans
should be as simple as a compile time option. Still weird that there is no config/command line option.
For FreeText annotations you can choose from different fonts. Strange design.
Many thanks for your reply.
I meant mupdf-gl
only, since mupdf-x11
lacks many features.
I’m going to report the issue again. Wish me luck.
@mjg, many thanks for adding version 1.17 to devel version.
Closing the issue myself.
@mjg,
it seems that MuPDF-1.17 has been released recently (https://mupdf.com/release_history.html).
Many thanks for your work.
