.pdf Thumbnails (Some not working)

Wed Feb 22, 2012 4:03 am
Hello,

Today I have switched from gnome 2 to kde 4.7.4 on Fedora. I am liking it but I feel like I am visiting a foreign land.

Some of my .pdf files have a thumbnail preview but most do not. I don't understand this behavior as all have thumbnail preview in gnome.

The folowing attributes have been defined:

wrench > Adjust view properties > show preview

wrench > configure dolphin > General > previews > PostScript, PDF and DVI Files

When I view properties and preview of the .pdf files with thumbnails null there is none listed. I think it stands to reason that the .pdf with no thumbnail preview was created with no preview. How do I change my kde settings to display the first page like gnome does?

Thanks in advance,

Mike

Can you open those files without preview with KDE's PDF viewer, Okular? Are they different in size compared to the others?

Thanks for the reply! Yes I can open the pdf files. The files are larger. I found the variable for size. I noticed when I increased the size limit the that the larger pdf's thumbnails appeared but it was sluggish. I think gnome is better in this instance but still not a better over all.
