1)pdfview.wlx = 23.March.2016 = 150 528 bytes
2)slister.wlx64 = 20.September.2011 = 59904 bytes
So which is better?
A simple answer, you don't understand how it works :)
The SLister plughin itself doesn't change and need no change.
The SumatraPDF files can always be the newest version.
I use its even with the latest SumatraPDF betas.
After comparison of these two plugins, the better is slister+Sumatra, because pdfview just not works correct (small fonts, zoom in/out not work)
You were right! Thanks!

TC 10.00 64 bits not works with wlx_pdfview_109.zip. After installation of gs9550w64.exe the error is:
"Could not load GhostScript environment!"
From lsplugin.ini (in same dir as wincmd.ini):

Code: Select all

[pdfview]
command=-dSAFER -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=bmp256 -r%3 -dTextAlphaBits=4 -dGraphicsAlphaBits=4 -sOutputFile=%2 -dFirstPage=%4 -dLastPage=%4 "%1"
resolution=210
exepath=c:\Program Files\gs\gs9.55.0\bin\gswin64c.exe
exepath= does it. But rendering is bad - small skinny fonts! I just can't remember how to set the parameters for Postscript. :? (Current values are very old.)
Ihave corrected the path but It not solve for me:
Could not load GhostScript environment!
Please make sure, that you have the latest GhostScript version installed.
(At least Aladdin Ghostscript 5.50)

The ghostscript command are very sensible, try to add double quotes around the exepath as you have space in folder.
then
You should try to see if the command is working fine from a console :

Code: Select all

"c:\Program Files\gs\gs9.55.0\bin\gswin64c.exe" -dSAFER -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=bmp256 -r%3 -dTextAlphaBits=4 -dGraphicsAlphaBits=4 -sOutputFile=tst.bmp -dFirstPage=1 -dLastPage=1 <input pdf>
and verify if no error occurs. Change command settings until you get a valid tst,bmp normally first page without any error on console.

Slister when installed in a folder with R/W access and new sumatrapdf is for me more stable. Install newest sumatrapdf.exe or replace the one embedded by an old zeniko version and check settings to have complete path to the exe.
