[Python-apps-team] Bug#709008: xpra: PDFs appear very tiny in evince under xpra at 100% zoom

Package: xpra
Version: 0.9.2+dfsg-1
Severity: normal

Steps to reproduce:
1) evince http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/maint-guide/maint-guide.en.pdf
2) Select "100%" from the zoom widget of the toolbar

Expected results:
2) text is readable

Actual results:
2) text is way too tiny to be read.

This does not occur without xpra so I guess it is doing something that
confuses evince about the size of the screen. Please reassign to
evince if you believe that the bug is not in xpra.

This did not occur with xpra 0.3.4+dfsg-1. 

This does not seem to occur if I use

xpra start --no-daemon --xvfb 'Xvfb +extension Composite -screen 0 3840x2560x24+32 -nolisten tcp -noreset  -auth $XAUTHORITY' :14

so maybe this is somehow related to Xdummy?

"man xpra" still claims that the default value of --xvfb would be

'Xvfb +extension Composite -screen 0 3840x2560x24+32 -nolisten tcp -noreset  -auth $XAUTHORITY'

but this is apparently not the case anymore?
