[Gramps-users] Re : image or PDF

[jerome <rom...@ya...>]

Hello,

I remember a workaround some years back for displaying thumbnails 
with a snapshot of the OpenDocument content.

Sure, this should also work within Gramps under UNIX-like OS,
getting OS' thumbnails generated for pdf files. But this will be a
custom hack, nothing common and proper for all supported operating
systems.

Is there any common way for generating a preview of its PDF file?

 I am just starting to use Gramps and
 checking out the features. One 
 question I have is what format should I use when scanning
 images and 
 also single page documents such as a Birth Certificate to
 add to a 
 Gallery. I notice that a thumbnail and preview are available
 with a jpg 
 file but just a generic thumbnail and no preview for a pdf.
 I will need 
 to scan multi-page documents as a multi page pdf but should
 I scan all 
 single pages as jpg or as pdf or should I only scan pictures
 and photos 
 as jpg and only documents as pdf?
 
 Cheers
 Garry
