** Tags added: saucy vivid

** Description changed:

- I'm using Evince 3.10.0 in a Lubuntu 13.10 x86 VirtualBox VM.
+ 1) lsb_release -rd
+ Description:  Ubuntu Vivid Vervet (development branch)
+ Release:      15.04
  
- Certain PostScript files fail to render correctly in Evince.
+ 2) apt-cache policy evince
+ evince:
+   Installed: 3.14.1-0ubuntu1
+   Candidate: 3.14.1-0ubuntu1
+   Version table:
+  *** 3.14.1-0ubuntu1 0
+         500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ vivid/main amd64 Packages
+         100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
  
- See the attached example document. It has three pages but when loaded into 
Evince only the last page is shown, upside-down.
- At that point Evince reports:
- (evince:2829): EvinceDocument-CRITICAL **: ev_document_get_n_pages: assertion 
'EV_IS_DOCUMENT (document)' failed
+ 3) What is expected to happen opening
+ 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince/+bug/1266542/+attachment/4287301/+files/News.ps
+ is all three pages are shown.
  
- If I then choose Rotate Left the displayed page disappears. Evince reports:
- (evince:2829): Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_pixbuf_get_from_surface: assertion 'width 
> 0 && height > 0' failed
- (evince:2829): Gtk-WARNING **: drawing failure for widget `EvView': invalid 
matrix (not invertible)
- (evince:2829): Gtk-WARNING **: drawing failure for widget `EvView': invalid 
matrix (not invertible)
+ 4) What happens instead is only the first page is visible. This was
+ first reported in Lubuntu 13.10, with Evince 3.10.0.
  
- Clicking Rotate Left again causes the document to be displayed upside-
- down again.
+ WORKAROUND: Convert to PDF via ps2pdfwr.
  
- 
- If I convert the PostScript file to PDF (by doing ps2pdfwr filename.ps 
filename.pdf), the PDF document does display correctly in Evince.
+ WORKAROUND: Open via gv.
