Date: Wed, 07 Jun 2006 14:00:05 -0400 From: madodel Subject: [VOICENWS] SW: Lucide beta 1 available for eComStation customers ++ From the VOICE OS/2-eCS News Service http://www.os2voice.org ++ From: Joachim Benjamins Serenity Systems International and netlabs.org today released the first beta version of Lucide, a document viewer for eComStation designed as an replacement for Acrobat Reader. One goal of Lucide is to have a fast document viewer which is well integrated in the eComStation WPS and supports features like drag and drop and printing and which makes as easy as possible to work with PDF and other files on eComStation. Lucide provides a SOM based plugin API, this makes it possible to support much more than just PDF documents, the current release also supports DjVu documents and JPEG files. More formats can easily be added by 3rd party programmers. While the core of Lucide is currently not released as open source software, all plugins are available in sourcecode to encourage programmers to add support for more file types. All registered eComStation customers can download Lucide Beta 1 from the the eComStation Betazone, after login at: http://www.ecomstation.com/ If you find any bugs please report them to the Netlabs tracking system: http://svn.netlabs.org/lucide/ If you want to provide some more plugins for Lucide you will find the sample source code on this page as well. The package also contains all GPLed parts of the source code. Support is available on the Lucide mailinglist, you will find details about that on the page mentioned above.
