djvu.qlgenerator

QuickLook generator for DjVu documents.

To install, copy djvu.qlgenerator to:

	DjView.app/Contents/Library/QuickLook  (version 1.0+)

	/Library/QuickLook

	~/Library/QuickLook

QuickLook is a Leopard only feature.  The DjVu generator depends on the

DjVu.mdimporter also being installed in order to properly render multi-page

DjVu documents when using the Finder, Time Machine, or QuickLook previews.

Multi-paged documents will default to previewing five pages with a "..->" image

to indicate more pages are available when viewing the documents with DjView or

other DjVu viewers.

Additional settings can be modified trough the defaults system.  Settings are

for defining the maximum number of pages to preview, enabling thumbnailing,

and debugging messages to the console.  Settings can be modified as follows:

	defaults write org.djvu.qlgenerator previewpages 2

	defaults write org.djvu.qlgenerator debug YES

	defaults write org.djvu.qlgenerator thumbnail NO

Modifications or deleting the org.djvu.qlgenerator entry from defaults will

reset the qlgenerator to default values built into the generator, e.g.:

	defaults delete org.djvu.qlgenerator thumbnail

	defaults delete org.djvu.qlgenerator

Occasionally, prior DjVu viewers may have installed a default icon into the

HFS+ resource fork of a .djvu file.  This will prevent the first page from being

previewed in CoverFlow views and thumbnails in other Finder views.  Corrections

can usually be made by resetting the "Open With" segment of the file's

inspector view from the Finder.
