As we have just discussed in a very recent thread, the two main problems
(at least for me) with gpdf are :
1) Printing doesn't support odd/even pages (unless the printer's driver
natively support it, which it doens't in my case apparently)
2) No (easy/GUI) way of selecting/extracting/copying pics and text
But other than this, gpdf is lovely, so I hope they will implement these
features for Breezy, so we can give up non-Gnome apps completely.
