Description Ghee Teo 2011-11-11 07:45:43 UTC
Created attachment 53405 [details]
sample pdf file

In Solaris 11, we have poppler 0.14.4 with evince 2.30.3.
With the attached pdf file, two things happened:
- clicking on (page one) of the checkbox does not show up 'tick' symbol
- when select print to file, format pdf, then click on the Prent Preview, the letter '4' appears in the ticked boxes instead of 'tick'

I think the problem is caused by the wrong fonts have been used to render that field.

I don't see the problem with poppler 0.12.4 (Evince 2.28.x) on Oracle Linux 6 nor ubuntu 10.4 (Evince 2.30.2).

poppler 0.14.4 is 20 releases behind the current one, so please try poppler 0.18.1 and if it still happens come back to us.
Comment 2 Ghee Teo 2011-11-11 08:23:47 UTC
Hmm, thanks for letting know.
Unfortunately, the work is a bit more extensive since release after 0.14.x is dependent on cairo 1.10.0 but only have 1.8.10 on the system.
Will take longer to get there.
