Tres Finocchiaro commented on PDFBOX-5715: ------------------------------------------ I've made a sample document "line-widths.pdf" using FOP which helps illustrate the severity: !desired.png! !actual.png! > Lines vanish when printing on MacOS > ----------------------------------- > > Key: PDFBOX-5715 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-5715 > Project: PDFBox > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Rendering > Affects Versions: 2.0.30 > Reporter: Tres Finocchiaro > Priority: Major > Labels: print, printing > Attachments: actual.png, desired.png, fop.zip, > image-2023-11-11-18-55-20-972.png, image-2023-11-11-18-56-24-363.png, > image-2023-11-11-18-57-39-403.png, line-widths.pdf.zip > > > When printing the > [border.fo|https://github.com/apache/xmlgraphics-fop/blob/main/fop/examples/fo/basic/border.fo] > example (converted to PDF from Apache FOP) to a 4x6 printer on a Mac, some > of the lines vanish. > * The behavior does not occur on a A4 or US Letter document. > * The behavior varies slightly depending on rendering hints. > * The behavior is not reproducible on Linux > * This problem has been discussed – in part – on the mailing list here: > [https://lists.apache.org/thread/nb9vsfx2gd8j37mrnlbbj0vqy6wrwt88] > Attached is a sample project which reproduces this problem: > [^fop.zip] > To run the example: > # Install a PDF printer on the Mac > # Extract fop.zip and run it using maven: > {code:java} > mvn compile && mvn exec:java > {code} > Expected: > !image-2023-11-11-18-57-39-403.png! > Actual: > !image-2023-11-11-18-56-24-363.png! > > In the field, this issue may be common in scenarios where labels are obtained > from shipping companies that use Apache FOP for creating the PDFs and are > then printed using PDFBOX (e.g. PitneyShip). At time of writing this, the > issue seems to be specific to MacOS. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@pdfbox.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@pdfbox.apache.org
