Public bug reported: Binary package hint: evince
Good morning, It is the first time I submit a bug report, or ever have the feeling that I am "speaking to the Ubuntu community", so first of all, thank you all for your work ! I have been using Ubuntu for quite some time now, and have a lot of pleasure in doing so. So the problem is that for some pdf's, the rendering of Evince is poor. Characters appear blurry at all scales, and such a thing does not happen when viewed with xpdf. Attached is a screenshot of the views given by evince and xpdf of the following pdf : http://www.projecteuclid.org/DPubS/Repository/1.0/Disseminate?handle=euclid.aoms/1177700291&view=body&content-type=pdf_1 (see the link "PDF file" at the bottom of the page). I have a fresh install of Jaunty (9.04) on an HP Pavilion laptop. I have already experienced this problem on an earlier version of Ubuntu, and on a Dell Inspiron laptop. My current version of Evince is 2.26.1, with poppler 0.10.5 (cairo). Most documents work just fine, but this problem is not unique to the pdf I mention here. Looking for some earlier reference about this problem, I found this one : https://bugs.launchpad.net/evince/+bug/20310 The guy emphasizes that Evince is slow. I also had the feeling that when characters were blurry, Evince was notably slowier than usually, or as compared to xpdf on the same document (non blurry, fast). Ok, I think I gave you all the information I had ! Thanks again.
