XnView Software

it would make much sense if XnView used different DPI values for thumbnail creation and displaying.


That would be great and would solve two problems in one go (slow thumbnail generation and bad pdf resolution), if that is indeed the issue. 72 dpi is plenty for a thumbnail. Its only when opening ...

It's the first setting I change. PDF files are unusable at 72 dpi.

I'm not sure how xnview has access to it unless that path is coded in though, as it ...

Recently, I've come across this bug that shows up with certain matplotlib (with tex backend) created pdfs.
Xnview correctly generates the thumbnails and opens the file. But the background is grey. It should be white (it's a white box background, no transparency). Other Mac apps open the file and ...
