Description Sebastien Bacher 2009-10-14 02:57:06 UTC
The bug has been described on https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/bugs/443026

"Lots of embedded graphics are now not printed in printed PDF documents, they just appear as a white space on paper. This never happened for me in Jaunty, so this looks like a regression in one of the PDF filters?

I attach an example document which reproduces the issue. The graphics below "Skizze" is not printed at all, if you open the document in evince and just print it.

However, if I do "pdf2ps Aufgabe01.pdf" and open/print Aufgabe01.ps with evince, it works.

Unfortunately, trying to convert it back with pstopdf, the resulting PDF doesn't print at all and just causes the print job to stay in the queue forever.

It happens with my Samsung ML-1610 with the SpliX 2.0 driver.

Reproduction recipe without a printer:

  - Open reproducing document with evince
  - Print into a PDF file
  - gs output.pdf"
