[Thunar-dev] Thumbnails of PDF and comic book archive files with Thunar by Evince

[Genghis Khan]

Dear Evince and Thunar developers,

I have noticed that it possible to generate thumbnails of PDF and
comic book archive files in Nautilus and I was wondering what is
missing in order to have thumbnails with Thunar 1.0.2.


Does the following directory has the desired solution?

$ ls /usr/share/thumbnailers/
	thunar-vfs-font-thumbnailer-1.desktop
	whaaw-thumbnailer.desktop

$ cat /usr/share/thumbnailers/thunar-vfs-font-thumbnailer-1.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Encoding=UTF-8
Type=X-Thumbnailer
Name=Thunar Font Thumbnailer
Comment=Creates thumbnails for font files
TryExec=/usr/libexec/thunar-vfs-font-thumbnailer-1
MimeType=application/x-font-otf;application/x-font-pcf;application/x-font-ttf;application/x-font-type1;
X-Thumbnailer-Exec=/usr/libexec/thunar-vfs-font-thumbnailer-1 -i %i -o
%o -s %s

# vi:set encoding=UTF-8:


Thank you.
