[Desktop-packages] [Bug 794142] Re: Printing PDFs with some greyscale images results in the images appearing as negatives
Thank you, Kuroshima, for reporting this. I have struggled with this bug on Ubuntu 10.10 and 12.04. I didn't report it myself because my problematic PDFs are copyrighted. However, I am attaching a screenshot of Evince's screen display (left) and Evince's print preview (right). This sounds like a very old Ghostscript bug (http://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=691760) but I ran the test documented there and it worked fine, so I think it's unrelated. My work-around was to print via Xpdf, which was awkward but worked. However, now Xpdf is completely broken (bug #943195) and I am without a way to print my maps at all. ** Bug watch added: Ghostscript (AFPL) Bugzilla #691760 http://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=691760 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to evince in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/794142 Title: Printing PDFs with some greyscale images results in the images appearing as negatives Status in “evince” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: evince Some PDFs, such as http://e23.sjgames.com/media/SJG31-1003_preview.pdf (attached, just in case the file is changed) that feature greyscale images.
