This code was lovingly crafted with the help of ChatGPT. Yes, an AI helped make this. So if something doesn’t work, feel free to blame the robots. But if it does work? Yeah, that was totally on purpose.
Acrobat Pro Killer is the ultimate PDF viewer and editor you never knew you needed—because who doesn't want to destroy Adobe Acrobat Pro with a Python script? Built with PyMuPDF for handling PDFs and PyQt5 for a questionably modern GUI, this tool is designed to be a sleek (or at least functional) alternative to the bloated giants of the PDF world.
- Fast(ish) PDF Rendering: It opens PDFs... eventually.
- User-Friendly Interface: If you’ve used a computer before, you might figure it out.
- Zoom and Navigation Controls: Because what’s a PDF viewer without basic functionality?
- Lightweight & Efficient: Well, lightweight doesn’t always mean fast, and efficient is open to interpretation.
Because downloading from GitHub is half the battle:
git clone https://github.com/SQA2009/acrobatprokiller.git
cd acrobatprokiller
git clone https://github.com/SQA2009/acrobatprokiller/releases
You’ll need a couple of Python packages to get this masterpiece running:
pip install PyMuPDF PyQt5
Let the magic unfold by running:
python acrobatprokiller.py
- A file dialog will probably appear. Select your PDF and hope for the best.
- Zoom In/Out: There's a slider. Use it. It's not rocket science.
- Scroll: Your mouse wheel is your best friend.
- Page Jump (WIP): You thought you could jump to pages? Not yet, but hey, dreams are free.
-
Open Terminal (or Command Prompt):
Navigate to your shiny new project folder:cd path/to/acrobatprokiller
-
Launch the Script:
Because double-clicking is overrated:python acrobatprokiller.py
-
Open a PDF File:
- Click File > Open.
- Choose your PDF with fingers crossed.
-
Navigate the PDF:
- Scroll to your heart’s content.
- Adjust the zoom using the slider, pretending it's super high-tech.
- Page Jump? Yeah… still working on that.
No screenshots. This is an adventure, not a slideshow.
