It says:

-------
1. yum poppler poppler-qt
--- End quote ---
I think it is: yum install poppler-qt
My issue is that I don't use CUPS and it is mandatory for it to run. CUPS gives me trouble installing it. I need to read more about it. It says it need to be installed on the root but I don't want to do that.

Please always open a ticket for such things. I can't go over all Forums and look for possible bugs.

Hi Silvan,
You know that most people don't read the instructions when installing anything new ;D they generally try, fail and then complain hence my saying it would be an advantage if the required DLLs could be downloaded as one package.
Thanks for the information that Alex has produced something I will have to try and find it and do some tests. It is one of the things that people trying OS/2 eCS that I know of complain about, the other is having gigabit network cards and not having drivers for them.
Thank you for the time and effort you put in to help keep our OS up and running.

Hmmm,.....looks like the topic "Edit pdf files" is drowing here, so I repeat my last post:
I placed cups.dll in the Qpdfview directory and it works. Annotations seems to work also and that is good, but still I need to have some "free text" or a text box with possibility to choose size of the font. This text has to be visible when opening the document and not "hidden" in an annotation.
Martin Iturbide:
Hi Per.
You are right. I have to say that qpdfview is a keeper on this subject.
I tried putting cups.dll on the directory (like you told) and it runs. I added some annotations to a PDF, some highlight and after that save it and also try out on Lucide. Very good. It is sad that I have not the time to test all ported software, I should knew about this before :)
Check out the screenshots for everyone else.

Such an installer is available from Alex Taylor. In ecs 2.2 beta it's included. I don't know where to download offhand.
