Hello Mahesh,<br><br>> Are you sure?<br><br> I never used ggv. Also my debian installation does not contain that pacage in default installation. But sure that in the repo ( Not ggv, its gv ? )<br><br>------------------------------------<br>
debian:~# aptitude search gv | grep -i pdf<br>p gv - PostScript and PDF viewer for X <br>debian:~# <br>------------------------------------<br><br> It says it is for X ( Not done much research, I will check it later )<br>
<br> Can you give a real life example to use that command. <br><br>The link <a href="http://linuxtuts.blogspot.com/2008/02/how-to-view-pdf-file-from-console-in.html">http://linuxtuts.blogspot.com/2008/02/how-to-view-pdf-file-from-console-in.html</a> itself uses the pdftohtml as I told. <br>
<br>Anyway thank you for poitingout new one ( Gv ).<br> <br> <br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sat, Apr 18, 2009 at 11:46 AM, Mahesh Aravind <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:maravind84@yahoo.co.in">maravind84@yahoo.co.in</a>></span> wrote:<br>
