Package: libpoppler126
Version: 22.12.0-2+b1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
don't care about the system information below, these are just from the
system, running reportbug.
The poppler library has an issue rendering images / fonts correctly, when
running on big endian machines. Assume the following code:
#include <memory>
#include <poppler-document.h>
#include <poppler-page.h>
#include <poppler-page-renderer.h>
int main() {
std::unique_ptr<poppler::document>
doc{poppler::document::load_from_file("poppler-data.pdf")};
std::unique_ptr<poppler::page> page{doc->create_page(0)};
poppler::page_renderer renderer;
poppler::image img = renderer.render_page(page.get());
img.save("test.png", "png");
return 0;
}
, which renders a file called "poppler-data.pdf" and creates a file called
"test.png". The mentioned sample file can be found here [1]. When compiling
and linking on amd64 the resulting png file looks reasonable...some
glyphs are missing.
Doing the same on a Big Endian box (in my case PowerPC) the picture looks
broken: the colors are different. As far as I know s390x is affected too.
Attached are the two sample files for Little and Big Endian.
