How about porting Briss to Android for use on rooted Nooks and Sonys?

Ratio-setting feature in new version?
Howdi,
I see on the SF page that there's a few patches and new features that will be integrated into the new version. I get a lot of use out of Briss right now, to trim PDF's for my 9" Pocketbook, but often it involves a bit of trial and error to get the right ratio - so that feature of being able to lock in a ratio, even picking from a small range of presets, is dearly missed. Any news on when we might see 0.0.14 released? |

Hi all!
I finally had some time to release briss version 0.9! I changed the version numbering scheme because with the rate of releases so far I would have expected version 1.0 in the year 2934... Download from: https://sourceforge.net/projects/briss/ This version features: * library updates for better compatibility * better bookmark/index handling * user interface enhancements by Rastislav Wartiak (Thank you!) Have fun! |

Thank you for this update. I like the rectangle movement & sizing fine-tuning enhancements

Do you know that the name Briss for this software could be offensive to some?

Many thanks laborg - I've had a very quick play so far, but it looks great.

Just wanted to thank you for Briss, it's awesome.
The only problem I have with it is that it can't seem to handle more than about 20 single pages (the pages you input into the box when loading a file) - it will get stuck loading. |

Hi,

Someone has a comment on sourceforge suggesting to put a warning somewhere in Briss that would inform you that Briss does not *remove* your content, but only *hides* it, and thus it's not appropriate for sensitive data.
While I can see how this may seem unimportant to some, I think it's actually very important as this is quite unintuitive behaviour. And although never worked with confidental data in pdf, may be a bad idea to start with, but it's an existing practice, *just like* printing everything to pdf [as only format] for e-distribution. All in all I have to strongly agree with the warning suggestion, Briss could have this warning in some sort of status bar or like those "Firefox style know-your-rights bars" (with perhaps the tickmark "go away and never come back"). It could be also in the help, too, but a more visual warning seems like a good idea to me. Last but not least, thanks for the new version. I cannot put into words how I like Briss, it changed my life... depending on it day-to-day. Last edited by naxa; 06-04-2012 at 06:08 PM. Reason: asdf |
