Description tonyblackwell 2009-05-13 20:15:24 UTC
Please describe the problem:
Description of problem:on Mandriva 2009.0 x86_64, 


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Evolution 2.24.5

How reproducible:
happens about one time in 3.  I've tried highlighting various single entries
before going Ctrl-A to select all, but haven't established a guaranteed way to
display the corruption every time.

Steps to Reproduce:

1.Put some people details in Evolution Contacts
2.in the main window showing multiple entries, highlight the first line of one
of them
3.Ctrl-A to select all entries.  All the first lines are highlighted
4.File -> Print Preview  This displays all the entries in a nice layout,but
about 1 time in 3 with severe text corruption.


The original displayed in Evolution:

Blackwell, Tony
Full Name: Tony Blackwell
Nickname: Tony
Home E-mail: t.blackwell@uq.net.au
Home Phone: 11111111  (changed for this example)


Displayed on print preview:

Blackwell, Tony
File Under: Blacxwell, Ton&
Full Name: Ton& Blacxwell
Given Name Ton&
Family& Name Blacxwell
Nicxname: Ton&
j-mail1: t.blacxwel lku(unprintable squiggle).net.au

pasted into this bugreport - its changed again!!  Strange that I got something
closer to the original without the '&' and 'x' etc of the corrupted display. 
It's not right however - see corrupted email line, with a gap in address.

Blackwell, Tony
File Under: Blackwell, Tony
Full Name: Tony Blackwell
Given Name: Tony
Family Name: Blackwell
Nickname: Tony
E-mail 1: t.blackwel l@uq.net.au

This is totally weird stuff.  Does it have anything to do with having chosen
'all languages' at initial install?  Looks like some font problem??  Makes
Evolution unusable.
