Preview of pdf reader for psp

[wraggster]

sauron_le_noir has posted a test release of a PDF reader for the PSP, so with that in mind dont expect this to be perfect, heres his news release:


At this link you have a preview wat my homebrew can do
there is no filechosser yet it take always from
psp/game/psppdf/test.pdf you may replace test.pdf with any of your pdf's
LTRIGGER backward page RTRIGGER forward page
analogic stick navigation into the page
UP key = zoom in
Dow key = zoom out
X = quit pdf reader
Known bug zoom > 1.7 may crash the homebrew with a enought memory error
zoom < 0 if the bitmap rendere is less than 480x272 garbage on the screen not covered by the bimap
I try the implementation of cpu at hight speed this week-end
fix the garbage
and try to allocate more memory if slim detected

the link for the preview for a slim is

http://www.enterinmydream.info/~sauronlenoir/psppdf_preview.zip
and for the fat

http://www.enterinmydream.info/~sauronlenoir/psppdf_preview_fat.zip

see the next discution why a version for fat a another for slim

it's a debug build if the homebrew crash i'm very interested int the 2 or 3 txt files
generated in the folder where the homebrew is launched they give me indication
about the heap space (malloc and free objects ...).
The code for illegal pdfs or endomaged pdf is not tested yet i give in the zip
a test.pdf make with openoffice

PS: i have tested the homebrew on a psp slim with 4.01M33

Not to flame you ,but there already is a good pdf reader , ..why make another one?
Unless it's for your own knowledge to learn of course..

maybe because, at least the one I know (Bookr), does not work in PSP Slim and/or the newest CFW 4.01 M33-2

Bookr runs fine on my PSP Slim although I only use 3.90 M33-3 because I have not found a reason to upgrade yet. But back on topic I think that it is good there is more choice over PDF reader hopefully this will be very actively developed :)

[Veskgar]

I think this is a great idea. We already have lots of things. Does that mean we should not ever be allowed the choice to choose between other, similar things?

Keep up the good work!

Hello folks,
just to let you know: bookr does work fine with Slim & 4.01 M33-2, at least for me.
But that's no reason not to make a better, nicer, smaller or just different PDF-Reader.
Keep going, :thumbup:
greetings,

Because bookr isin't perfect. Pdf above 5mb won't load.

I have yet to find a PDF that bookr would read. Maybe it's just the PDFs I collect, but it simply doesn't work for me, so I've been waiting for another PDF reader. In the meantime, I've been doing like many people and converting PDFs into jpgs and using one of the comic reader apps.
