GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 310308
evince has problem printing some files
Last modified: 2005-09-22 18:09:30 UTC
Distribution/Version: Fedora 4 The file at http://www.kniivila.net/deponejo/kongresa.pdf prints an overlay of the file and of raw code (it seems) on my printer (HP LaserJet 4L). The file prints properly with xpdf and gpdf. The preview is fine.
Hi, this looks like a bug with the PDF backend. Could you please follow these instructions to help get this bug fixed. Thank You. http://live.gnome.org/Evince/PopplerBugs#poppler
Is this actually a poppler bug? FC4 is using splash backend like gpdf... Martin any idea?
There is a similar problem printing Persian documents. An example is this: http://www.sharghnewspaper.com/840529/pdf/03.pdf
I actually get the same exact result with gpdf and evince. Please follow the instructions here: http://live.gnome.org/Evince/PopplerBugs#poppler
Ping?
I have very similar, probably the same problem. I did some investigations on the postscript files generated by xpdf and evince. The problem is that the file from xpdf contains 'embeded' (I do not know if it is the official name) fonts and the file from evince not. Actually, one can do diff of two postscript files and apply _only_ the chunk that contains fonts on evince postscript. The file then prints OK. This method works also for the originally reported file. If you already know this, then excuse me for the noise, but maybe it can help.
Yeah this will probably help. Can you please report this to poppler bugzilla? It's definately a popppler issue, we cant do much about it in evince. See http://live.gnome.org/Evince/PopplerBugs#poppler
Added like poppler bug https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4555
Thank you very much!
