Description Felix Braun 2006-08-15 05:53:16 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
My display is 231x138 mm wide and has 1280x768 px (xdpyinfo shows these values, so the X server knows about this). At 100% an A4-page (210 mm wide) should be approximately 1164 px wide.

Evince displays the same document (testpage from the tetex distribution) with different widths depending on the input file format used.

Format		Displayed width
===============================
PDF		594 px
DVI		619 px
PostScript	1164 px


Steps to reproduce:
1. Open attached files in evince
2. Select 100% zoom for all files

Actual results:
All three documents are displayed at a different size (only PostScript being displayed correctly)

Expected results:
All documents are diplayed at the same correct size on screen.

Does this happen every time?
Reproducible every time.

Other information:
This is with cairo-1.2.2 gtk-2.10.1 evince-0.5.5 poppler-0.5.3 t1lib-5.0.2
