NAME¶

claws-mail-pdf-viewer - Display Portable Document Format (PDF) and PostScript® attachments.

DESCRIPTION¶

This manual page documents briefly the claws-mail-pdf-viewer.

This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

claws-mail-pdf-viewer is a plugin (loadable module) for the Claws Mail mailer.

This plugin enables rendering of PDF and PostScript® attachments within the message view of Claws Mail.

PDF rendering is done using the poppler library.

PostScript® rendering requires gs tool for converting to PDF. If gs not available only PDF attachments will be displayed.
