Bug#579709:

[Damien Couroussé]

Package: evince
Version: 2.32.0-1
Severity: normal


Hello,

I do also experience this bug.
But pdfcube also has the same displaying problems for me. xpdf handles
correctly this document.

Furthermore, I have noticed that this problem happens in documents that
include "no name" fonts.
For example for this document :

pdffonts CoplanarPts.pdf
name                                 type              emb sub uni object ID
------------------------------------ ----------------- --- --- --- ---------
[none]                               Type 3            yes no  no       4  0
Times-BoldItalic                     Type 1            no  no  no     252  0
Times-Bold                           Type 1            no  no  no     248  0
Times-Roman                          Type 1            no  no  no     245  0
Times-Italic                         Type 1            no  no  no     241  0
[none]                               Type 3            yes no  no     279  0
Symbol                               Type 1            no  no  no     459  0
[none]                               Type 3            yes no  no     489  0
Courier                              Type 1            no  no  no     662  0

I can reproduce the bug and the reported behaviour for pdfcube and xpdf with other similar documents, e.g. :
http://www.capricorn.org/~akira/home/lockpick/mitlg-a4.pdf
found here : http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-bugs-dist@lists.debian.org/msg1037414.html

$ pdffonts mitlg-a4.pdf
name                                 type              emb sub uni object ID
------------------------------------ ----------------- --- --- --- ---------
[none]                               Type 3            yes no  no       4  0
[none]                               Type 3            yes no  no     272  0


Hope it helps


thanks,
Damien
