GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 141127
Problems with embedded image
Last modified: 2006-08-27 22:37:48 UTC
following pdfs from different sources, are not readable with gpdf: http://gadek.debian.net/FOSDEM/FOSDEM-Prokopski-SableVM.pdf http://www.novell.com/brainshare/presentations/jack_monday.pdf It is however readable with xpdf and acrobad reader PS: the first one is generated with openoffice. The second one I don't know.
Created attachment 27101 [details] a demonstrative screenshot The second file appears to also have been created with OpenOffice 1.1.0. This screenshot was taken using the gpdf CVS from 2004-04-24.
I can verify having the same issue, with pdf files generated on this machine and with the above as well. The above files will not open with ggv or gv either, so this could be more widespread an issue. (fontconfig, xft?) The following are Fedora Rawhide (pre-release FC2-test3) package versions. gv-3.5.8-24 xpdf-3.00-3 gpdf-0.131-2
Yes, both come from OpenOffice.org 1.1.0. gv/xpdf have some problems with the SableVM logo in the second file. I guess this is what Andrew meant.
*** Bug 140774 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
I meant "first file" (FOSDEM-Prokopski-SableVM.pdf) not "second file"
With Bug 148362 fixed, everything except the logo should work in CVS HEAD now.
Fonts works fine now, but there is something very strange on page 2 and 3 since gpdf 2.9.3 (xpdf and evince) displays in magenta what acroread 5.0.10 renders as grey. I'm afraid that something must be wrong here.
Gpdf is no longer maintained, closing WONTFIX. Please use Evince for your pdf viewing needs. http://www.gnome.org/projects/evince/
The links to the PDFs in this bug report have rotted. However, the first PDF (FOSDEM-SableVM.pdf) is still available from archive.org: http://web.archive.org/web/20040414235945/http://gadek.debian.net/FOSDEM/FOSDEM-Prokopski-SableVM.pdf evince 0.5 does not render that PDF correctly -- as per comment 6, the text is fine but the logo appears as a big black box. gv renders it correctly. I do not see the problem described in comment 7. Recommend reopening, reassigning to evince.
Agreed, reassigning.
Created attachment 60116 [details] working on evince 0.5.0
This work for me now. * Evince - CVS HEAD * poppler (cairo) - CVS HEAD).
Closing according to comment #11
