In my experience, unusual scaling values were to try and get to a good "Page width" setting manually, so would not be such a loss. </div>Please don't remove the ability to choose arbitrary scaling values! The lack of this feature is one of the few things I hate about xpdf (the version in Debian at least - ISTR that the Gentoo version had this ability a few years back). It makes reading a lot of scientific papers (and other documents, of course) a pain (sometimes literally) because either the font is too small to read comfortably or you have to scroll constantly as lines span more than the screen width. By choosing an arbitrary scale value, I can put exactly those parts on screen that I want to read. Often, but not always this simply means zooming in to match the actual text layout instead of the paper size (most (La)TeX styles include rather wide borders to accommodate binding). </blockquote><div> You can increment/decrement the zoom with Ctrl + / - to any level.
