Inheritance diagram for Okular::Generator:

List of all members.


Detailed Description

[Abstract Class] The information generator.

Most of class members are virtuals and some of them pure virtual. The pure virtuals provide the minimal functionalities for a Generator, that is being able to generate QPixmap for the Page 's of the Document.

Implementing the other functions will make the Generator able to provide more contents and/or functionalities (like text extraction).

Generation/query is requested by the Document class only, and that class stores the resulting data into Page s. The data will then be displayed by the GUI components (PageView, ThumbnailList, etc..).

Member Enumeration Documentation

enum Okular::Generator::GeneratorFeature

Describe the possible optional features that a Generator can provide.

Enumerator:
Threaded 
TextExtraction  Whether the Generator can extract text from the document in the form of TextPage's.
ReadRawData  Whether the Generator can read a document directly from its raw data.
FontInfo  Whether the Generator can provide information about the fonts used in the document.
PageSizes  Whether the Generator can change the size of the document pages.
PrintNative  Whether the Generator supports native cross-platform printing (QPainter-based).
PrintPostscript  Whether the Generator supports postscript-based file printing.
PrintToFile  Whether the Generator supports export to PDF & PS through the Print Dialog.
