Package: evince
Version: 2.30.3-3
Severity: normal
Debian's evince seems to have some issues with the rendering of black &
white images when they're embedded in a PDF. Please refer to the
attached test.pdf and the screenshots. Evince in Debian testing renders
the image in such a way that the text is basically unreadable. The
evince version in Ubuntu Maverick does not have this problem. For
reference, I have also added a screenshot from Adobe Reader, which also
does the rendering correctly.
It would be great if whatever path Ubuntu added to or removed from
Debian's evince could also be applied to Debian.
