Hello,

I just discovered qpdfview and I think it is going to become my favorite PDF reader. Thanks for this great tool!
I have a few suggestions how the program could be improved in my opinion:

First, it would be nice to have a customizable toolbar like in Okular where you can add functions to the toolbar. For example I would like to have a button to enable/disable continuous page scrolling with a single mouse click and buttons for Fit to page size/Fit to page width.

Second, I would love to see more options in the printing menu. For printing I still use the old (no longer supported) Adobe Reader because it has some features I couldn't find in any other PDF reader. E.g. it allows you to select the print range "Current view" which is useful if you just want to print some part of a document without wasting toner.
Another great feature is the preview area where you can immediately see what the output will look like if you select for example "Fit to page". It also allows you to scroll through the pages that will be printed. That's very helpful to check if you have picked up the right pages when playing around with options like "Print just odd pages in reverse order" or if you enter the page numbers manually.

Thank you very much for considering my requests.
