Feature Requests

[menedas]

- increase sharpness of bitmap documents (temporary for reading would be ok)
- increase contrast of bitmap documents (temporary for reading would be ok)

Printing:
1. manually center page in cell for the custom scale feature
2. additional features for print option "multiple pages per sheet"
2.1 custom page scale (currently I have to do it in many actions to get that (scale > print to pdf > print multiple pages))
(that feature would save me lots of time)
2.2 manually center page in cell
2.3 remove large dark areas (decreases amount of used printer ink)

Hello menedas,

Welcome to our forums, and thanks for your suggestions.
I have passed this topic to our devs for comments, as some of those features might already be in development (for ver3 of our Viewer) - and the rest could be planned for some time in the future.

We will post back here when we have some more comments and a bit more precise information for when/if you could expect these features implemented.

Best,
Stefan

Hello menedas,

I just spoke with our devs and here are their comments on your requests:
We have created a workitem for ver3 of our Viewer:
#1330: Viewer v3+: Temporary edit the sharpness/contrast of scanned documents

For your initial request, and I am afraid that they rejected all your printing requests, as they are very specific and not considered useful for the broader audience.

Best,
Stefan

All students I know need a feature of a custom page scale for print option "multiple pages per sheet". But they still don't know it. We get lots of digital papers and have to print them. But people want to save paper by print at least two pages on one sheet page. When I showed them how I make it and that the text size doesn't gets too small (scale > print to pdf > print multiple pages) they are impressed of the result. But they also say its to complicated.

Many papers are bad scanned or at least aren't centered. So a manual center feature to scale the paper as much as possible, without having big boarders on one side where on the other side the text is getting cut, would helpful.

Those two features are my main requests.

I don't think that it would be complicated to implement, as those functions are still there. In the first case, it only needed to be added in the print option, in the second, the feature is only needed to be enhanced for manual control.

Thats just my opinion

Thanks for your comments menedas,

But I am afraid that at this moment the devs will not change their mind for this feature, and it will remain rejected. After ver3 is released - this could of course be reconsidered.

Best,
Stefan
