Description m.rick.mac 2016-02-01 11:58:18 UTC 
Some images formats are unsupported when trying to import them in Glom:
JP2 (JPEG 2000), PDF, SVG, EPS.

Xunbuntu 15.04
Comment 1 Murray Cumming 2016-02-02 07:13:40 UTC 
This suggest a problem with the GTK+ and/or evince build. Maybe the necessary dependencies were not installed when building GTK+, for instance. However, I might add some tests to Glom to make sure that it supports common formats.

By the way, are you running the existing tests in Glom, via "make check"?
Comment 2 Murray Cumming 2016-02-02 08:33:43 UTC 
Sorry, I didn't notice the mention of Xunbuntu. I thought you were talking about your Mac build.

However, at least on Ubuntu, it works for me. I assume that you are using the PPA package for Glom, like me. Could you give me more details about what you see?
Comment 3 m.rick.mac 2016-02-15 20:19:57 UTC 
Well, I tried with the example database "Small Business Example"
And click on the Image field and tried to load some JP2, PDF, SVG, EPS files. Nothing loaded in the field, the loading window appears and seems to load and that's it.
Comment 4 Murray Cumming 2016-02-24 20:27:33 UTC 
Just to be completely sure, could you please upload one file that you have this problem with. For instance, a PDF.
Comment 5 Murray Cumming 2016-02-24 20:41:04 UTC 
Nevermind. There seems to be a problem with all image formats that need use to use evince's EvinceView. Let's deal with this in bug #761396 .
