Do other poppler-based programs result the same issue? B) Perhaps the PDF is not fully compliant? How exactly did you create your "scan-example.pdf" in your attachment#548860 ? Do you perhaps get the issue only when you create PDFs in the same way as you did with your "scan-example.pdf"? There is no free (as in free speech) software that could verify whether or not a PDF is compliant (like PitStop does). Regarding whether or not a PDF is compliant one can currently do only some random tests: Currently we provide three separate PDF rendering engines: - poppler (a fork of Xpdf) - Ghostscript - Adobe Reader Regarding whether or not a PDF is compliant one can currently only try out the other PDF rendering engines. B1) Does the Adobe Reader ("acroread") display it as you expect? Does the Adobe Reader show any issues/errors when displaying it? B2) Alternatively display the PDF with Ghostscript like $ gs -r50 file.pdf This opens a X11-window that shows the graphical content of a PostScript or PDF file. At the command line where you typed the "gs" command, press the [Enter/Return] key to show the next page. To exit Ghostscript type "quit" or press the [Ctrl/Strg]+[C] keys. Possible errors are shown at the command line where you typed the "gs" command. In case of errors, the PostScript or PDF is definitely invalid. But no errors do not prove that the PostScript or PDF is actually valid. To only test if the PostScript or PDF is invalid run $ gs -r50 -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH file.pdf to let Ghostscript show the pages continuously. If there are no errors, check if the graphical content is what you expect. The "-r" parameter specifies the resolution so that "-r100" shows the graphical content at double size compared to "-r50". -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
