I am also affected by this bug. But contrary to the first posting, "print to file" has the same problem, and even the print preview contains the scattered letters. The result from my experiments with the aforementioned spring-reference.pdf were:
- printing directly from evince has scattered letters - printing to pdf has scattered letters - selecting "print to file" with the pdf option yields scattered letters (in the print preview and the file) - printing via command line "lpr spring-reference.pdf" works! - printing to ps works - selecting "print to file" with the ps option works (in the print preview and the file) - other viewers (such as xpdf) work, because they simply use the "lpr" command It also doesn't work with my personal pdf files, which were created by pdflatex. So they probably don't contain obscure propietary pdf extensions... Thus I suspect a bug in the pdf processing of the gnome or evince printing framework. -- Printing certain documents yields characters scattered all over the page https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/661724 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evince in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
