Package: evince
Version: 3.8.3-2
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
evince does not open the attached minimal-example.ps file, it just says
loading, instead of showing the Delta.
Both the nautilus thumbnailer and ghostscript show this file correctly.
The error message in the terminal is:
$ evince minimal-example.ps

This is probably due to some font problem, as can be seen from the
minimal-example.ps:
After commenting out the lines 286-288, evince can load the ps (see
minimal-example-working.ps). But then it shows no Delta, instead it
shows a D.
line 286:/Symbol findfont
line 287:/Font30 exch definefont pop
line 288:/Font30 FFSF
Please fix this as soon as possible.
Best regards,
Andreas
