Description rom 2009-11-01 23:35:12 UTC
When I try to print this document : http://dl.rom1v.com/misc/sequences_zigomar.pdf
(pages 2 or 10 or 12 or 13 or … all the pages which have this particular format), it doesn't work, the process of printing takes 100% cpu and never prints.

I installed okular (kde pdf viewer) and it works, so I think this is an evince problem (not a printer driver problem).

Looks like a cairo issue. According to sysprof most of the time is spent on _cairo_pdf_surface_emi_pattern(). Adrian?
Comment 2 José Aliste 2012-12-05 13:44:24 UTC
The file is no longer accessible. Could you try to reproduce in a newer evince? If you can reproduce, please attach the file or provide a new link for it. Otherwise, we'll have to close this bug as there is nothing for us to do without the test file.
Comment 3 rom 2012-12-14 17:40:22 UTC
Arf, I removed it.

Fortunately, the same document is findable. I think it is exactly the same :

I confirm, I found it on another computer, it has the same sha256sum. The link of the bug report is now valid again.

Thanks.  I am re-opening the bug.

FWIW, the file is too big to attach it here.
Comment 6 Adrian Johnson 2012-12-15 04:13:15 UTC
Works for me with both poppler 0.18.4/cairo 1.12.2 and poppler master/cairo master.
Comment 7 Germán Poo-Caamaño 2013-01-09 22:17:28 UTC
I can't reproduce it now.  Neither with evince 3.4.0/poppler 0.18 nor evince master/poppler 0.22.

rom: may you give more information:
- Can you reproduce it now?
- Which version of evince/poppler? (see the about dialog)
- How can we reproduce it?

I tried to print pages 2, 10-13, and other combinations.  All of them worked.
