It seems that the fonts used are not supported by freetype, FT_New_Memory_Face is returning Unknown_File_Format for all fonts. The 'Invalid Font Weight' message should be harmless I guess, it happens because some of the fonts are using /FontWeight 850 which is not a valid value according to the PDF spec. Works for me, which freetype version do you guys use? (I've 2.4.12 here) ii libfreetype6:amd64 2.4.9-1.1 amd64 FreeType 2 font engine, shared library files ii libfreetype6-dev 2.4.9-1.1 amd64 FreeType 2 font engine, development files I was using 2.4.9 too, but can confirm that upgrading to 2.4.12 solves the problem. Thanks for the help guys! :) |

Created attachment 87732 [details] Sample from The Book of GIMP The attached sample PDF (from The Book of GIMP) does not render any text in Evince (or xpdf for that matter). I do get a ton of warnings in the terminal: Error: could not create type1 face some font thing failed Error: Invalid Font Weight Error: Invalid Font Weight and the font properties in evince list all fonts as "Unknown font type". The PDF does render fine in Acrobat so I'm guessing there's nothing wrong with the file. I'm using poppler 0.18.4 and Evince 3.8.3
