Description of problem: Evince does not successfully print preview or print this linked PDF. http://www.mecu.com.au/imhome/attachment_stream.asp?ID=76&FootprintID=0&ProcessID=0&Filename=membership_incorporated_body.pdf Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.20.1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open PDF 2. Choose File/Print 3. Click Print Preview or Print Actual results: Does not work... print preview never visible or corrupt, and no printing. Expected results: Print preview and printing Additional info:
Fedora 8/x86_64 here. Just tried to reproduce this bug, and evince opens the document ok, but when I choose print-preview as mentioned above, evince doesn't actually do anything. Instead, its CPU usage skyrockets and my system interactivity degrades significantly. Here is the output of top: PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 19408 mharris 20 0 474m 105m 11m S 89.0 21.1 0:11.83 evince file:///tmp/membership_incorporated_body-1.pdf PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 19408 mharris 20 0 474m 105m 11m S 85.0 21.1 1:25.48 evince file:///tmp/membership_incorporated_body-1.pdf %CPU fluctuates between 50% and 90%, but most often sticks at 85% CPU usage until I close or kill evince. This one is very easily reproduceable at least for me here.
Here's another PDF that does print, but shows corruption in print preview or print, on page 1 of the print, down the bottom where the grid goes over the text: http://www.ato.gov.au/content/downloads/nat2939e.pdf
Still apparent in evince 2.20.2-1

Created attachment 298534 [details] simple plot created using R-2.6.2 evince on F8 (version 2.20.2 using poppler 0.6.2) displays this file with the two small open circles representing data points replaced by "q". The pdf file works on ghostscript, kpdf, acroread, printers, etc. On a debian system with evince 2.20.2 but linked to poppler 0.6.4, the PDF file is rendered correctly.
Maybe related to https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12769 ?
The file attached to this bug also renders incorrectly in Fedora 10 beta.
This is almost certainly https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12769 . Note that that bug has been fixed on trunk.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 8 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 8. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '8'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 8's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 8 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
R-test.pdf issue still apparent in F10
*** Bug 485235 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Created attachment 331843 [details] document that does not print / preview This bug is some sort of weird as it deals with two problems (printing/preview and displaying some documents). I can confirm the original problem printing / previewing certain documents. As the link stated does not work I'll attached a document to reproduce the issue here.
it actually previews fedora 11, but generating the preview takes over one minute for one page.

Fedora 10 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-12-17. Fedora 10 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
