Correct rendering of Adobe Reader

Description Lukas Petrovicky 2007-12-19 08:52:14 UTC
In a document that I will attach soon after creating this bug, Adobe Reader 8 for Linux correctly displays some images that Evince does not - I suppose that's a poppler bug.

As you can see from screenshots, instead of the images Evince displays white-filled rectangles with black borders.

Attachments coming in few minutes.

File that demonstrates the bug

Open this file id Adobe Acrobat Reader for Linux - you'll see icons of a train and of a train car.

Open this file in Evince with poppler backend and you'll see strange boxes instead.

Incorrect rendering of Evince/poppler

See the incorrect rendering that I get when using Evince with poppler backend.

This looks fine with evince (using poppler-0.5.4) for me.

It looks bad using head with the Qt4 test tools.

Lukas: can you tell us what configuration you are testing with?

Of course, sorry for the omission. It's Evince 2.21.1 using poppler 0.6.2 with Cairo backed. (Running it on fully updated Ubuntu 8.04 dev release.)

However, I remember seeing that bug ever since I use the application that generates the above PDF - early August. (I don't remember the version of Evince used then, however - most probably the one currently available in Ubuntu 7.10 and GNOME 2.19 respectively.)

Comment 6 Brad Hards 2007-12-20 01:52:39 UTC
Hmm, with a more up-to-date version, it looks fine with HEAD and the qt4 test tools too.

Possibly a cairo backed bug.
Comment 7 Carlos Garcia Campos 2007-12-20 08:50:43 UTC
It works for me with poppler git master, cairo and evince.
Comment 8 Albert Astals Cid 2007-12-20 11:02:04 UTC
For both frontends works here on master, but not on poppler 0.6 branch.
Comment 9 Albert Astals Cid 2008-01-19 10:41:35 UTC
Works for anyone on poppler master branch, please reopen if it does not work once we release poppler 0.8
