[Okular-devel] "why okular is cool and what's our focus" text

[Albert Astals Cid]

Florian Graessle from OpenUsability asked me to write a "why okular is cool 
and what's our focus" text for them including okular in their "Season of 
Usability" program.

That's the text i wrote, suggestions and improvements are very welcome, but 
before the end of week as they need it then.

**************

okular is an universal document viewer for KDE 4. That means its focus is 
empowering the user to read any kind of document with lots of features.

Having a universal document is very good for the end user because the end user 
only has to learn how to use an application to read any document.

okular actually has some degree of support for PDF, PS, TIFF, CHM, DJVU, 
images, DVI, XPS and ODF document formats, although we are always open to 
supporting new formats.

Important features include:
 * Various view modes: Continuous view, Page per Page View, Presentation mode, 
Summary View
 * Thumnail support
 * Search on the document and thumbnail filtering by text
 * Table of Contents support
 * Page Rotation
 * Annotation support, empowering the user to comment and share comments of 
documents
 * Word processor-like text selection
 * Support for format unique features, like embedded files in documents
