PROGRAM:
NAME
katarakt - a simple PDF viewer with three layouts
SYNOPSIS
katarakt ([OPTIONS] FILE|(-u URL))*
DESCRIPTION
It’s a PDF viewer. It views PDFs.
There are currently three layouts. The single layout is very simple and only supports
scrolling on a per page basis. As the name suggests the current page is displayed in the
center and zoomed to fit the window. It is active by default.
The grid layout is much more advanced and offers continuous (smooth, per pixel) scrolling,
zooming and adjusting the column count. Pages keep their correct relative size and are
shown in a grid.
The presenter layout is for giving a presentation. It opens a second window, to be viewed
on the beamer, and shows the current and next slide in the main window.
For every file passed on the command line a separate process is spawned.
OPTIONS
-u, --url
Instead of opening a local document, download it from the given URL.
-p, --page NUM
Start on page NUM.
-f, --fullscreen
Start in fullscreen mode.
-q, --quit true|false
If true, quit on initialization failure. If false, show the window even if an error
occured. Overrides the config option quit_on_init_fail.
-s, --single-instance true|false
If true, prevents opening the same document twice and focuses the existing instance.
Overrides the config option single_instance_per_file.
--write-default-config FILE
Write the built-in default configuration to FILE and exit. Hint: on unix systems, you
can use --write-defaults /dev/stdout to print the defaults.
-h, --help
Print help and exit.
CONFIGURATION
Variables and key bindings can be changed by modifying the katarakt.ini file. By default
it is read from $XDG_CONFIG_HOME.
Variables must be listed under the section "[Settings]", keys under section "[Keys]".
Settings that are not present in the config file use the built-in default. For a list of
all variables with a short explanation see below.
KEY BINDINGS
q
Quit katarakt.
1
Switch to single layout. Views a single page at a time, scaled to fit the screen.
2
Switch to grid layout. Views pages in a continuous fashion, scaled to fit the window
width. Supports zooming and multiple columns.
3
Switch to presenter layout. Views the current page and a smaller preview of the next
page. Also, opens a second window that shows only the current page for displaying on a
beamer.
Up, Down, Left, Right, k, j, h, l
Move around (up/down/left/right).
^u, ^d
Scroll up/down half the screen.
BackSpace, Space, ^b, ^f
Scroll up/down the screen. By default scrolls 90% to create an overlapping region.
PgUp, PgDown
Scroll up/down one page. Kind of swaps the pages in place.
Home, End, g, G
Go to the first/last page.
^g
Show goto page bar.
/
Show the search bar. Hitting Esc will hide the results, searching for an empty string
will clear them. If the search term contains an uppercase letter the search is case
sensitive ("smartcase").
?
Show the search bar. This next search will be backwards.
n, N
Focus next/previous search hit.
^n, ^N
Focus next/previous search hit that is currently not visible.
^o, ^i, Alt-Left, Alt-Right
Move backward/forward through the jump list. Entries are added automatically when
jumping.
m
Manually add the current page to the jump list.
-, +, =
Adjust zoom level (grid layout only).
z
Reset zoom level to default, i.e. fit width (grid layout only).
[, ]
Adjust column count (grid layout only).
{, }
Adjust the column the first page will be displayed in. Useful for reading in a book
layout with a cover page (grid layout only).
,, .
Rotate pages left/right.
t
Toggle the page number display in the bottom right corner.
i
Toggle between normal and inverted color rendering.
^c
Copy the current selection to the global clipboard.
v
Swap the mouse buttons for selection and panning. The the left mouse button’s current
operation is indicated by the mouse cursor.
f
Toggle fullscreen.
r
Reload the document. This can also be achieved by sending SIGUSR1 to the process.
katarakt reloads automatically if the opened file has changed.
o
Open a different document; shows a file dialog.
s
Show a file dialog to save the current document.
F9
Toggle the table of contents.
VARIABLES
string default_layout
single: The layout on startup. Possible values: single, grid, presenter.
string background_color
0xDF202020: Background color in ARGB Format. Alpha only works when using a compositor.
string background_color_fullscreen
0xFF000000: Fullscreen background color in ARGB Format.
string unrendered_page_color
0x80808080: Color that gets drawn instead of a page that hasn’t been rendered yet.
int click_link_button
1: The mouse button used for clicking links. Buttons 1-5 are supported.
int drag_view_button
2: The mouse button used for scrolling the view. Double-clicking this button centers
the view around the location of the click. This is especially useful when using many
columns to get an overview. Resets the column count to 1.
int select_text_button
1: The mouse button used for text selection. Double- and triple-clicking are supported
to select with word/line granularity.
int smooth_scroll_delta
30: Pixel offset when moving around.
float screen_scroll_factor
0.9: Factor for scrolling the screen. Should be <= 1 to create an overlapping region.
float jump_padding
0.2: Distance from the border of the screen to keep for jump targets, e.g. search
hits. Moves the view so that search hits are centered more.
int rect_margin
2: Number of pixels search rects are expanded by.
int useless_gap
2: Gap between two pages in grid layout in pixels.
int min_zoom
-14: Smallest zoom value.
int max_zoom
30: Biggest zoom value.
float zoom_factor
0.05: Influences the number of steps between min and max.
int min_page_width
50: Pages can not be smaller than this.
bool quit_on_init_fail
false: If true, quit katarakt if the document fails to open.
bool single_instance_per_file
false: If set and katarakt is called with a file that is already shown in another
katarakt instance, then the other katarakt window is activated instead.
string stylesheet
See http://doc.qt.io/qt-4.8/stylesheet.html. It can be overridden via Qt’s -stylesheet
command line option. The following example changes the goto page bar:
stylesheet="
GotoLine {
margin: 0px;
padding: 4px;
border-top-right-radius: 6px;
border-top: 1px solid black;
border-right: 1px solid black;
}"
string page_overlay_text
Page %1/%2: The text in the bottom right corner.
string icon_theme
The name of your icon theme. Fill in if auto detection fails.
int prefetch_count
4: Number of pages exceeding the currently visible ones to render, back- and forwards
respectively.
int mouse_wheel_factor
120: QT delta for turning the mouse wheel 1 click. Shouldn’t need to be touched.
bool thumbnail_filter
true: Enables the higher quality downsampling filter for thumbnails.
int thumbnail_size
32: One dimension of square thumbnails saved at run-time for every page that was once
rendered.
