Hello to everyone,

I agree with you. Personally I encountered also problems with margins in 
pdf(s).

So I'm using postscript as image format. It scales smooth and TexMacs knows 
well how to resize this sort of images.

Perhaps I'm happy with this solution because I draw essentially maths and I 
use linux ? .. ! 

However you can try it and let it don't if you don't find this convenient.

Bye

Pierre

Objet: [TeXmacs] Strange behaviour with Insert->Image (pdf v.s. png)








Hi guys, 

I would like to signal a strange behaviour of Texmacs that happens 
when i'm inserting images in a document. 
(using Texmacs stable on Debian stable) 

So, if I insert a "pdf" image I can see it well in the 
Texmacs window but, on the other side every time 

i scroll over the image the editor get stuck in computations 

and eats 100% cpu for a bounch of seconds (4 to 10 sec). 



So I changed all images to "png", now Texmacs works 

a lot better and it does not hang in computations when 

i scroll over images or in loading the document but, 

on the other side, the preview (what i see in Texmacs) 

is a very low quality image. 


If I export to pdf i get good quality images in both cases, 

pdf or png. 



Finally I made a test, I had only one pdf image remaining, 

the editor was getting stuck scrolling around it. I changed it to "png" 

and all worked as described above, much better performace 

but lower quality of the image preview. 

The pdf was about 150KB the equivalent png about 50KB. 


By the way, i think i saw this in a message already but, 

"repetetita juvant", including an image as "pdf" the top part of it 

is cutted out. 




Bye 

Nicola
