non working pdf

Adobe reader displays about 3 lines of text. evince only shows 1.

almost forgot, here is the downstream bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince/+bug/547225

I know it doesn't seem like a lot (3 lines vs 1), but this particular document was generated to have no personal information for the purpose of the bug report.  Normally they have names, addresses and phone numbers of people, but I didn't think it was approproate to upload one of those for all to see.  This document has the miminum amount of text to show what is happening with the bug without releasing sensitive information.

It's a bug in poppler, I've just fixed it in git master: 

http://cgit.freedesktop.org/poppler/poppler/commit/?id=8c6aefb8aa8929b9c47791d3062ed3ac8512626f

Thanks for reporting.

Does anyone know when this will hit the repositories?  I would really like to get these types of pdf's working in evince.  I have tried to compile it, but I couldn't find the configure or makefile in the .tar.gz
Comment 5 Carlos Garcia Campos 2010-05-21 06:42:50 UTC
The fix is already in poppler 0.13.3.
Comment 6 S 2010-05-21 14:48:05 UTC
Oh Wow.  So do I need to file another bug report, because it still doesn't display the document correctly?  I am using Ubuntu Lucid.
Comment 7 Carlos Garcia Campos 2010-05-21 14:56:09 UTC
No, at least not here, file a bug report in launchpad, the bug si already fixed upstream.

When will the latest one (newer than .12.4) be in the repositories?  Or would it be better to compile from source?  In that case should I purge the one I have installed first?

I don't know anything about the ubuntu plans, you'll have to ask them.
