Description Carlos Garcia Campos 2007-10-28 02:35:27 UTC

Bug forwarded from Evince: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=490472

"Please describe the problem:
When I select text, the whole selected area is drawn in one colour, so the
selected text becomes "invisible".

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open the pdf file from
http://www.nondot.org/sabre/os/files/MemManagement/DynamicStorageAllocationSurvey.pdf
2. Select some text



Actual results:
The selected text and background is the same shade of blue (depends on theme)

Expected results:
Selection background and text should have different colour

Does this happen every time?
Yes, but only in one particular document:
http://www.nondot.org/sabre/os/files/MemManagement/DynamicStorageAllocationSurvey.pdf"

I think it's reproducible with any pdf with Type3 fonts
