@drewdevault is it available for the general public somewhere? now I'm wondering whether pdfjam is able to digest it (and split it into smaller PDFs)
@drewdevault for me the record holder is firefox's pdf.js on android which has managed to freeze on a single-page document. @drewdevault it seems like my standard pdf reader on my pixel 8 pro can open and read it just fine. It takes a lot of time to scroll to the last page (feels like 2-3 seconds for 100 pages) though @drewdevault Is it the same doc as in this report? https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/poppler/poppler/-/issues/1485 (reported by @nekohayo ) If yes then the perf is half fixed as the second half of the patch has been in review for a couple of month. This should help in Okular, Evince and Paper. And anything using poppler. Otherwise it would be interesting to get our hands on it. @drewdevault Let's just hope its more readable than the x86 one. I honestly don't know what creature the manual is designed to be read by but they certainly aren't human. |
