Feature Request: Flexible space on pages bar

Hi, could you please consider to make the space on the left and right of a page in the pages bar flexible (or at least smaller). Then you could have a larger preview of the page at the same width of the pages bar - or - more space for the document with a smaller width of the pages bar. http://img244...

Display problem with PDF-XChange Viewer

Hi this PDF (created by printing via the PDF-XChange 4 printer driver from GhostView) is displayed wrong in PDF-XChange Viewer 2.0.40.7, but in AdobeReader (at least v7) it's displayed as the original PS file - without the black blocks - so I think it's a viewer and not a printer driver problem.
