filename for the image in the subsequent dialog. Click Print Snapshot to print the screen<br />

shot.<br />

You can also use The GIMP to take screen shots. To open The GIMP, press Alt +<br />

F2 and enter gimp. When you run GIMP for the first time, it installs some files in<br />

your home directory and displays dialogs that give you the opportunity to adapt it to<br />

your environment. For information about using The GIMP, refer to Chapter Manipulating<br />

Graphics with The GIMP (↑Applications) or see its help. You may need to install the<br />

help with YaST (kdeutils3-extra).<br />

5.10.6 Viewing PDF Files with KPDF<br />

PDF is probably one <strong>of</strong> more important formats. KPDF is a KDE program that can view<br />

and print them.<br />

Start KPDF by pressing Alt + F2 and entering kpdf. Load a PDF file with File →<br />

Open. KPDF displays it in its main window. On the left side, there is a sidebar with<br />

thumbnails and a contents view. Thumbnails give an overview <strong>of</strong> the page. The contents<br />

view contains bookmarks to navigate in your document. Sometimes it is empty, meaning<br />

bookmarks are not supported by this PDF.<br />

To view two pages in the main window, select View → Two Pages. The view depends<br />

on what last two options you activate in the View menu.<br />

Another nice option is to select the area in which you are interested with the select tool<br />

from the toolbar. Draw a rectangle and choose from the pop-up menu whether you need<br />

the selected area as text or as a graphic. It is copied to the clipboard. You can even save<br />

the area to a file.<br />

5.10.7 Font Administration with KFontinst<br />

By default, <strong>SUSE</strong> Linux provides various fonts commonly available in different file<br />

formats (Bitmap, TrueType, etc.). These are known as system fonts. Users can additionally<br />

install their own fonts from various collections on CD-ROM. Such user-installed<br />

fonts are, however, only visible and available to the corresponding user.
