<title>Opening Files</title>
<para>
To view any supported file in &okular;, select <menuchoice><guimenu>File</guimenu><guimenuitem>Open...</guimenuitem>
</menuchoice>, choose a supported file in the dialog and click <guibutton>Open</guibutton>.
Your file should now be displayed in the main window.
</para>
<important>
<para>
The new document will be opened in a new tab if the <guilabel>Open new files in tabs</guilabel> option on the <link linkend="configgeneral">General configuration page</link> is checked.
</para>
<para>
You can close the tab by clicking with &MMB; on it.
</para>
<para>
The previously closed document in a tab can be reopened using the <menuchoice><shortcut><keycombo action="simul">&Ctrl;&Shift;<keycap>T</keycap></keycombo></shortcut><guimenu>File</guimenu> <guimenuitem>Undo close tab</guimenuitem></menuchoice> menu item.
</para>
</important>
<para>
If you have already opened files in &okular; before, you can quickly access them by selecting them in
the <menuchoice><guimenu>File</guimenu><guisubmenu>Open Recent</guisubmenu></menuchoice> menu.
</para>
<para>&okular; is the default &kde; application for &PDF; and &PostScript; files, launched when you click with the
&LMB; on such a file type in the filemanager. If you want to open any file whose format is supported by &okular;
use <menuchoice><guimenu>Open with...</guimenu><guimenuitem>&okular;</guimenuitem> </menuchoice> from context
menu in the filemanager.
</para>
<para>
After having a file opened you probably want to read it and therefore navigate through it. Go to the
<link linkend="navigating">next section</link> to learn more about this.
</para>
</sect1>
<sect1 id="navigating">
<title>Navigating</title>
<para>This section describes how you can navigate through a document in &okular;.</para>
<para>
There are multiple ways of scrolling the viewing area. One is to use the &Up; and &Down; arrow keys. You may also use the scrollbar, your mousewheel or the &PgUp; and &PgDn; keys.
</para>
<para>
You can also use <application>vim</application>-like navigation keys, namely <keycap>H</keycap> to move to the top of the previous page, <keycap>L</keycap> to move to the top of the next page, <keycap>J</keycap> to move one line down, and <keycap>K</keycap> to move one line up.
</para>
<para>
Another way is to hold the &LMB; down at any place on the document while dragging the mouse in the
opposite direction of where you want to move. This procedure only works if the Browse tool is
enabled, which you can select by choosing <menuchoice><guimenu>Tools</guimenu>
<guimenuitem>Browse</guimenuitem></menuchoice>.
</para>
<note>
<para>
When viewing a document in the <link linkend="presentationMode">Presentation mode</link> use &Up; and &Down; arrow keys to switch between pages or slides. The number and the position of the current slide will be shown in the overlay at the right upper corner of screen.
</para>
</note>
<para>If you want to read a document with several pages use the automatic scrolling feature of &okular;.
Start automatic scrolling with <keycombo action="simul">&Shift;&Down;</keycombo> or
<keycombo action="simul">&Shift;&Up;</keycombo>. Then use these keys to increase and
decrease the scrolling speed. You can start or stop automatic scrolling temporarily by pressing the &Shift; key;
pressing any other key deactivates this feature.
</para>
<para>Another way to navigate through a document with several pages is to use the mouse pointer. Drag the page up or down, continue to drag even while reaching the bottom or top of the screen and behold.
Once you cross the border of a page, the mouse cursor appears on top or bottom of the screen again and you can just continue to drag.
</para>
<para>
The sidebar on the left side of the screen enables two more ways of navigating
through a document:
</para>
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>
If you click on a page thumbnail the viewing area will be brought to
that page.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
If the document has a table of contents, clicking on a table
of contents item will bring the document to the page linked to that
item.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
If the document has layers, you can control the layers shown by checking or unchecking
the items in the <guilabel>Layers</guilabel> list.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
If the document has bookmarks, enable the <guilabel>Bookmarks</guilabel> view
and click them to go to the associated page.
If bookmarks are not only shown for the current document, you can quickly
switch to bookmarks in all recently opened files.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
If the document has annotations, enable the <guilabel>Annotations</guilabel> view
and click the annotations or select them with the &Up; and &Down; arrow keys and press &Enter; to go to the associated page.
</para>
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
<para>
Some documents have links. In this case you can click on them and the view will
change to the page it links to. If the link is to a web page or some
other document the default &kde; handler for that format will be invoked.
For example, clicking on a link pointing to <quote>https://www.kde.org</quote>
will open the web page in the default &kde;'s web browser.
</para>
<important>
<para>
The document internal links work only when <link linkend="menutools">Browse Tool</link> is used.
</para>
</important>

<para>
You can add digital signatures to documents using the corresponding action in the <menuchoice><guimenu>Tools</guimenu></menuchoice> menu.
</para>
<para>
To be able to sign a document you need to have a proper <acronym>PKCS</acronym> signing certificate available on your system. &okular; does not have the ability to create such certificates since they need to be issued by certificate authorities to be useful for validation, &etc;
</para>
<para>
We use the Poppler library to handle signing of &PDF; documents and Poppler is using the NSS library to handle certificates. At the point of writing, Poppler will try to use one of the following NSS certificate stores in order (the first that exists):
</para>
<itemizedlist>
<listitem><para>The current Firefox user certificate store.</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>The system-wide <filename>/etc/pki/nssdb</filename> certificate store.</para></listitem>

<para>
&okular; has the "document archiving" feature. This is an &okular;-specific format for carrying the document plus various metadata related to it (currently only annotations). You can save a "document archive" from the open document by choosing <menuchoice><guimenu>File</guimenu><guisubmenu>Save As</guisubmenu></menuchoice> and selecting <guilabel>Okular document archive</guilabel> in the <guilabel>Filter</guilabel> selector. Documents saved this way will get <filename>.okular</filename> as their filename extension. To open an &okular; document archive, just open it with &okular; as it would be &eg; a &PDF; document.
</para>
<para>
You can <emphasis>also</emphasis> save annotations directly into &PDF; files. You can use <menuchoice><guimenu>File</guimenu> <guimenuitem>Save</guimenuitem></menuchoice> to save it over the current file or <menuchoice><guimenu>File</guimenu> <guimenuitem>Save As...</guimenuitem></menuchoice> to save it to a new file.

<guilabel>Enhance thin lines</guilabel>
</term>
<listitem>
<para>
Drawing lines in &okular; is implemented in two steps: generation of the clipping path and filling this clipping path. When the line in the original document is less than one pixel this two step implementation could cause problems. For those lines, the clipping path is filled with the filling color that depends on the thickness of the line part inside the clipping area. If the part of the line inside the clipping area gets very small the contrast between the shape and the background color can become too low for the line to be recognizable. The grids of such lines then looks very unpretty.

To enhance the look of the thin lines &okular; implements two options.

<para>
The first option is <guimenuitem>Solid</guimenuitem>. With this option &okular; adjusts clipping path and line position so that clipping path and line are on the same pixel boundary, &ie; &okular; enlarges the thin lines to one pixel on the output device. This mode is similar to the <guilabel>Enhance thin lines</guilabel> in <trademark class="registered">Adobe</trademark>

<para>Choose the editor you want to launch when &okular; wants to open a source file.
This is the case when the document has references to the various points (usually row and column number) of sources it was generated from. The &DVI; format supports natively the addition of the information about the sources the &latex; document was generated from. A similar system exists for &PDF; documents, called <acronym>pdfsync</acronym>, which stores these extra information in an external file named after the &PDF; file itself (for example <filename>mydocument.pdfsync</filename> for <filename>mydocument.pdf</filename>).
