[Okular-devel] New feature requests

[Oliver Sander]

Hi Ken,
since you appear to be speaking in the name of a company: have you
considered hiring someone to implement the missing features for you?
The main okular devs are always busy and may not find the time to
implement what you need.  However there are various people and companies
that do okular coding for money.  Ask Albert for a list.  Some of
the recent multimedia improvements in Okular have been organized
that way, and it was quick and easy.
best,
Oliver

>  the best that I've found so far, but it's missing some features that
>  we use. The main ones are the Open Parameters for PDF (as described in
>  an Adobe document): nameddest, page, zoom, view, pagemode, etc. If
>  these could be implemented as part of the URL that is opened by
>  okular, that would be great! And making use of any embedded settings
>  would be good too.
