Bug ID: 317486
Summary: Okular and Document Languages
Classification: Unclassified
Product: okular
Version: 0.16.2
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: okular-devel@kde.org
Reporter: ozbeka...@gmail.com
As far as I know currently Okular can't determine language of opened documents.
It would be nice to have such a feature at Okular. This feature may help in two
areas:
1. In text based documents: can be implemented e-book devices like built-in
dictionaries (

2. In image based documents: can be developed simple OCR tools to convert
selection, one page or entire document to text ( http://i.imgur.com/02xC46E.png
)
I don't sure but probably doing this not a big deal for PDF, ePUB, MOBI, etc.
Can be obtained from some values of documents. But I don't have any idea for
CBR, CBZ, etc. Maybe following may help for this type files:
1. An option to (temporarily) define the language of the current document can
be added to the menu. For example: File > Document Language > English
2. A fallback language like KDE text editors' fallback encoding feature. If a
user read mostly English comics she/he can set English as fallback language, If
she/he likes manga then it can be setted to Japanese.
Reproducible: Always
