I know that ViewPDF does not work very well with current versions of gnustep
GUI. I think the reason is somewhere in the mess of code i wrote. I'm
currently rewriting larger parts of ViewPDF and improvem PDFKit. I think
i can release a preview of the new version in two or three weeks. I don't
want to put much effort in the current version since it's not worth the
time (i must know it because i wrote it :-). ViewPDF was my very first
*step project, so i think  i did some things wrong.
