Description Gilles Dartiguelongue 2008-06-05 20:36:57 UTC 
It seems evince as a little problem rendering some characters from dvi files when t1lib support is enabled.

Pursuing our downstream bug:

https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=158172

aballier, fellow gentoo dev, suggested it might be architecture related. And so it appears to be. The files I'll attach in a moment shows that when the tex files uses T1 for font encoding, the document shows garbled characters on amd64 but not on x86.

Demonstration DVI files

The archive contains the sample .tex file and two dvi files:
 * bad.dvi uses T1 for font encoding
 * good.dvi doesn't use T1

I think this problem is already fixed in svn trunk. See http://mail.gnome.org/archives/evince-list/2008-April/msg00011.html

Feel free to reopen it if the problem persists for you with evince from svn trunk. 

Thanks for reporting.
