Description John Spray 2007-07-03 12:39:48 UTC

Problem occurs with the following file:
http://dl.alphaworks.ibm.com/technologies/cellsw/cellFMwhitepaper.pdf

A few parts of page headers are drawn, the rest of the document appears blank.  Works with adobe reader.

Screenshot to follow.

Any chance you can try with 0.5.9 ?

Comment 3 John Spray 2007-07-04 14:26:46 UTC

Have tried with 0.5.9: reproduced identically.

Comment 4 Albert Astals Cid 2007-07-06 03:28:32 UTC

Works here with poppler cvs test programs gtk-splash-test gtk-cairo-test and test-poppler-qt4

Comment 5 John Spray 2007-07-06 03:46:27 UTC

For me, (poppler 0.5.9) the first page* is drawn correctly with gtk-splash-test, but gtk-cairo-test gives an error that just says "Error loading cellFMwhitepaper.pdf".

 - Could be a cairo-specific problem?
 - Since I only see the first page with gtk-splash-test it could be something on a subsequent page that's causing the problem?


* gtk-cairo-test crashes when I try to use the --page option, but I guess this is unrelated (I'm not filing a bug on it since it's not a user-visible program).

Comment 6 Albert Astals Cid 2007-07-06 07:36:54 UTC

gtk-splash-test does not have support for more than one page as far as i remember.
gtk-cairo-test has the weirdest file opening scheme and you have to type file:///home/foo/bar

Comment 7 John Spray 2007-07-06 09:05:31 UTC

Okay, when I give gtk-cairo-test a full URI it loads, but renders with the same problem as evince, while gtk-splash-test works.

This is all built with jhbuild and the gnome-2.20 moduleset: cairo version is 1.4.10.

Comment 8 Albert Astals Cid 2007-07-07 07:43:11 UTC

Cairo 1.4.2 here

Comment 9 Brad Hards 2007-12-01 00:22:53 UTC

Appears to be a cairo-backend / cairo problem.

Comment 10 Jeff Muizelaar 2007-12-02 19:37:55 UTC

This works fine for me. I expect it is a duplicate of 9846 and is fixed by using a newer version of cairo
