Salix Forums

At least in a lightweight desktop (salix fluxbox) i think xpdf would be more logical as a standard pdf viewer. If there are good settings in Xresources it will nicely do all what's necessary and even look fine.

What's wrong with atril?

Nothing, absolutely. But i think xpdf is even lighter - or am i wrong?

If you compare them directly, you're probably right. But you'll probably also be running another GTK app anyway, so if you remove the GTK overhead, I think they're not so much different. In short:
but
or close anyway,

and with atril you also get a better GUI, an app that doesn't only support pdf (but also postscript, djvu, cbr...) and an app that doesn't look completely out of place with everything else.
