Using poppler-0.5.9 (with evince-0.9 and poppler-1.4.6) I get a segfault when I try to select text from the attached file. I also don't know why poppler (or evince) needs much longer to open this file (I mean, the ones generated with Quartz), when xpdf is as fast as with any other file. Congratulations for your excellent work, Pablo

I accidentally discovered that poppler (0.5.9 compiled with cairo-1.4.6) crashes evince-0.9.0 when selecting text from any pdf file. I can send you backtraces from crashes with other PDF files. It seems to be a critical bug. Thanks for your help, Pablo
I can't reproduce it. poppler-glib API has changed. Please, recompile evince running configure (or autogen.sh if you have evince from svn) script and try again. Thanks for the report.
Carlos, I get the following error when trying to compile evince: ev-poppler.cc:1632: error: cannot convert ‘gdouble’ to ‘cairo_t*’ for argument ‘2’ to ‘void poppler_page_render_selection(PopplerPage*, cairo_t*, PopplerRectangle*, PopplerRectangle*, PopplerSelectionStyle, GdkColor*, GdkColor*)’ I'm using cairo-1.4.6. Is there any way to avoid this? Thanks, Pablo

Fine. I didn't realized that the new API required a new evince ;-). > We are going to release evince 0.9.1 in about a week, or you can also use > evince from svn. I can wait. Thanks for your help and sorry for the problems, Pablo
