Master Pdf Editor 3.5.10
Master Pdf Editor 3.5.10
Edit: update
I've packaged master-pdf-editor-3.5.10.sfs, this requires Qt to be installed.
master-pdf-editor-3.5.10_wary.sfs should work in pups with old library files, contains Qt, glibc 2.11.3 and GLIBCXX 3.4.13, this has some limitations such as not opening browser links.

Thanks I'll give it a try and report back here to you any problems, just to make your day!
Actually I meant that as a joke but I ran into problems on Puppy Precise 5.7.1.
The sfs loads OK but it wont start
# master-pdf-editor-3
/opt/master-pdf-editor-3.4.03/masterpdfeditor3: /opt/master-pdf-editor-3.4.03/lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.15' not found (required by /lib/libglib-2.0.so.0)

It's not suitable for precise, works with wary racy pups that are missing the newer library files.april wrote:Thanks I'll give it a try and report back here to you any problems, just to make your day!

For it to run in precise it will need the qt library for it, which you can get from here
I'll update MasterPDF with two version, one generic the other for wary and older pups, give me some time to do that as I've been ill so it's slowly slowly.
Updated, see first post

master-pdf-editor-3.4.12-wary.sfs Works fine in Precise 5.7.1 now thank you .
Small problem , will not start from Menu but rather going to /opt/master-pdf-editor-3.4.12/masterpdfeditor3 gets it running so there is probably a small adjustment needed in the link .
Looked it up and the script needs a change in /usr/bin/masterpdfeditor-3
#! /bin/ash
/opt/master-pdf-editor-3.4.12/masterpdfeditor
to
#! /bin/ash
/opt/master-pdf-editor-3.4.12/masterpdfeditor3
Good program thanks , and I like the fact that it ends up in /opt/ I put all my external added later programs there.

I'll assume that you installed the qt lib files for precise, that's why it worked when you ran /opt/master-pdf-editor-3.4.12/masterpdfeditor3, /opt/master-pdf-editor-3.4.12/masterpdfeditor is a script that loads the required lib files needed by wary.april wrote:master-pdf-editor-3.4.12-wary.sfs Works fine in Precise 5.7.1 now thank you .

You would be better to install the other master-pdf-editor-3.4.12.sfs that does not contain qt and the library files, it's /usr/bin/masterpdfeditor-3 does have this code
Code: Select all
#! /bin/ash
/opt/master-pdf-editor-3.4.12/masterpdfeditor3

It looks like the link changed, removing the "s" from "https", this is no good if your sharing your dropbox account linksgreengeek wrote:Hi Geoffrey, I keep getting download errors when trying to access this sfs.

I'm sure I included the s as I copy pasted the links when creating the post, and it did work.
I'll edit them to how they should be and see if it sticks, else try coping the url and paste it in the address bar, then add the missing s
this is weird as all my old links to dropbox work fine at the moment.

Re: Master Pdf Editor 3.4.12
Thanks, that worked - got it now. Works well on my Slacko 5.6 derivative. cheers.Geoffrey wrote:It looks like the link changed, removing the "s" from "https", this is no good if your sharing your dropbox account links
EDIT : - actually I do have an error - if I try to make a new pdf and insert a text box it says "Error loading default font:Helvetica"
Anyone have a tip for the best way around this? I'm not sure if I simply don't have this font at all, or if I just need to tell masterpdfeditor where to find it, or if it should already be part of the program itself but is missing...
EDIT 2 : I can edit the default font in "Tools/settings/editing" but only have a choice of "deja vu" in different versions. No other font options appear. It would be nice to increase the choices if I knew how.
EDIT 3 : Apparently masterpdfeditor is looking for its fonts in /usr/share/fonts/default/TTF. The only fonts I have in there are deja vu. If I add other TTF fonts into that directory they are seen by masterpdfedit. I don't know why Abiword etc sees a whole bunch of fonts that are not in that TTF directory (maybe Abiword and the other programs use the type1 fonts and masterpdfeditor only sees TTF?)

Re: Master Pdf Editor 3.4.12
This seems to be a common error from some of the forums I've read, the fix is to go to Menu > Tools > Settings > Editing, then select the default font there, that works for me.greengeek wrote:I do have an error - if I try to make a new pdf and insert a text box it says "Error loading default font:Helvetica"

I changed the default font from Helvetica to DejaVu Sans Book (and set the default font size to 16 as that's what I generally prefer), also changed the Update setting to 'Never', rebuilt the SFS ... and now using that as my default PDF viewer. Absolutely great. Can edit PDF's, add bookmarks, add attachments such as where the PDF was sourced from or a spreadsheet of the data used in the document etc.
Re: Master Pdf Editor 3.4.12
I see from your screenshot that you have a similar problem as i have with each font showing up twice.Geoffrey wrote:This seems to be a common error from some of the forums I've read, the fix is to go to Menu > Tools > Settings > Editing, then select the default font there, that works for me.
Re: Master Pdf Editor 3.4.12
So it does, it's a bit buggy in linux, two version back the print function didn't work and crashed the app also, but at lest it's mostly usable.greengeek wrote:I see from your screenshot that you have a similar problem as i have with each font showing up twice.

Re: Master Pdf Editor 3.4.12
Yeah, definitely. It seems like a really handy way to edit pdfs or even create them from scratch. I am also finding it is able to read and print some pdfs that my normal pdf viewer can't. Nice to have this in the toolbox.Geoffrey wrote: but at lest it's mostly usable.
Tools > Select Text then drag mouse to select the text, right click copy should work.april wrote:geoffrey i was trying to copy a paragraph and post it into a txt file as text.Do you know how to do this?
