Allowing n media layers would make working on and comparing several alternatives easy, I think. If all media layers are hidden, zoom best-fit could work on the image, otherwise on the media. But paper alone is not a sufficient model, I fear. There's the thing you print on and the final product (after cutting, perhaps) ... PDF has this media/crop/trim/bleed/art box model. Scary stuff ;) http://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=1041 Better written, but german: http://www.dtp-praxis.de/tipps/pdfboxen.htm 7. save for web Should include indexing for GIF (mandatory) and PNG (optional). If one needs to create a number of images in indexed colour mode that share some colours and where deviations are not acceptable, there should be an alternative to indexing them all as one image to then cut them apart. -- Thorsten Wilms Thorwil's Design for Free Software: http://thorwil.wordpress.com _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
