A PDF file with a very long title (24.26 KB, application/pdf)

A PDF file with a very long title

When a PDF file with a very long title has been selected for opening, the import options dialog box appears very wide and goes beyond the boundaries of the screen. Although the import dialog box is working, it is difficult to use as the buttons appear off the screen.

This is probably caused by showing the entire PDF file's title in the import dialog, without word wrap.

This can be resolved if GIMP sets a limit on the number of characters of the PDF file title to show, or turns on word wrap for the PDF file title.

How to reproduce this bug:
1. Open Gimp.
2. Goto File->Open and then load the attached PDF, which has a very long title.
3. A dialog box will appear which will extend off the screen. My screen has a resolution of 1024x768 pixels.
