From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8a) Gecko/20040422 Description of problem: A pdf file generated by printing from Mozilla and then running ps2pdf cannot be displayed properly in xpdf. No text shows up, although images do. In the terminal, I get: Error (1891): No font in show Error (1908): No font in move/show Error: Unknown font tag 'R14' Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xpdf-3.00-3 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. make a postscript file from Mozilla (file->print) 2. convert file to pdf with ps2pdf 3. load pdf in xpdf Actual Results: no text Expected Results: text Additional info: I'm using ghostscript 7.07-25 (Fedora-devel). The same happened with FC1's ghostscript, and xpdf. I'm testing with Mozilla trunk/gtk1 (no xft), but the same happens with an xft Mozilla build.
could you please give me a testcase, which causes this problem please? i went to http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=241295 and tried to print this page and converted it into pdf with ps2pdf afterward. xpdf can show this new converted pdf file without any problem. It works for me! please reopen it again if you have better testcase for reproducing this problem. Thanks
