From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; ja-JP; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050512 Fedora/1.0.4-2 Firefox/1.0.4 Description of problem: Xpdf of FC4 sometimes refuses to display japanese texts. Especially, as to /usr/bin/pdffonts, embedded fonts are displayed correctly while non-embedded ones go wrong. Since FC4 Test, it seems to have changed the directory names in /usr/share/fonts. For example /usr/share/fonts/ja to /usr/share/fonts/japanese, .../zh_CN to .../chinese, and so on. Actually the files included from /etc/xpdfrc are to be updated. Now I'm taking a workaround making my own $HOME/.xpdfrc with correct paths, but everyone should be happy if this is default. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xpdf-3.00-18 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. install fonts-japanese package 2. make a PDF including some non-embedded cjk fonts or download a URL above 3. open it Actual Results: Non-embedded fonts aren't displayed. (There must be japananese words between ``Sound MX'' and the horizontal line in the title page of the downloaded file.) Expected Results: Displayed using a system's default font. Additional info: Evince viewer cannot, too.
it's now fixed in xpdf-3.00-19. Many thanks for your reports.
