Broken rendering from rawhide (74.76 KB, image/png)

Description Alexandre Oliva 2005-08-16 17:07:08 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.8b3) Gecko/20050729 Fedora/1.1-0.2.5.deerpark.alpha2 Firefox/1.0+

Description of problem:
If you browse to page 13 of the PDF presentation mentioned in the bug's URL, using evince 0.3.2-2, you'll see a table that looks very odd: some horizontal lines in the table extend all the way to the left margin, while others are barely visible.  Vertical lines extend a bit lower than they should.  Also, there's some barely visible background on most pages that shouldn't be there; it's supposed to be uniform.  None of these problems are present with evince in FC4.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
evince-0.3.2-2

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open the PDF presentation in the bug's URL with rawhide's evince
2.Browse to page 13

Actual Results:  The lines that form the table are all messed up, and there are some unintended abstract-painting-like background.

Expected Results:  The page should be displayed just like FC4's evince did.

Comment 2 Tejas Dinkar 2005-08-16 17:28:27 UTC
This appears to work in evince 0.3.1 in FC4 2.6.11 kernel

See screenshot in the last comment

I did mention it worked on FC4.  This is what I get on yesterday's rawhide.

Ok. Thanks for the screenshot people. changing status to assigned

Comment 5 Alexandre Oliva 2006-03-01 02:23:02 UTC
Still broken in rawhide :-(  Is FC5's evince going to be unusable for
presentations, and I'm going to have to explain to people every time I deliver a
presentation why I don't use it, and use and recommend xpdf instead? :-/

Comment 6 Alexandre Oliva 2006-03-28 18:55:28 UTC
There appears to have been some debatable progress: now it displays some of the
lines correctly, and some others not at all :-/

Comment 7 Alexandre Oliva 2006-06-17 18:29:04 UTC
Still broken in rawhide :-(
