Could you provide a stack trace and the file that causes the crash?  (See
http://live.gnome.org/GettingTraces for more information on how to get a stack
trace)

the similar PDF that does not crash
Comment 3 Jeff Muizelaar 2005-06-03 19:34:16 UTC
So the problem is that libjpeg does not like the jpeg inside the pdf. How was
the crashing pdf produced?

Comment 4 Albert Astals Cid 2005-07-26 04:31:38 UTC
The problem is that libjpeg is strict with jpeg format and adobe is not that   
much. The file that crashes begins the DCTStream with  
  
stream^M  
^B^@3^@^@^@^C^@^E&#216;^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^A^@^[^@^@^@  
^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^@^A^@^@^@^A^@^@^@^A^@^@^@^A^@^@^@^A&#255;&#216;&#255;à^@^PJFIF  
  
when the good start is  
  
stream^M  
&#255;&#216;&#255;à^@^PJFIF  
  
You see there's a lot of "gargabe" before the &#255;&#216; marker that is the start 
marker of a JPEG "file". 
  
I've made a way too hackish patch that fixes that, i suppose we can find a  
better way to plug our own marker function in libjpeg code so that this file  
is correctly read.  
  
We also can close this bug as INVALID as the pdf itself is faulty.

Well INVALID? ok, the PDF is faulty, but I think the optimum would be not to
crash. Either give a note like "this PDF is faulty and cannot be displayed" or
open it, nevertheless. I would think a crash should never happen?

The bug is already fixed in cvs.
