1. First let me make clear that I am seeing this same bug on 2 different f21 
machines I've tested.

2. The files left in /var/spool/cups show the problem.  It appears almost all 
of 
the image is rendered off the page.  The tiny non-blank part I saw is the part 
that wasn't clipped off page.

Are the files in /var/spool/cups the original output from evince?

So now you can try to isolate why the evince print job fails by enabling
PreserveJobFiles and examining the actual data it sent, and seeing if
that's broken or if one of the filters breaks it.

Thanks!  I found
 lp -o landscape -o fit-to-page xxx.pdf

printed just fine!

But printing from evince produced blank pages.  Almost blank, there are 2 tiny 
blue letters at the bottom of each page.

There is information about how to isolate this sort of problem on this
page:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_debug_printing_problems#Finding_where_the_problem_lies

Perhaps you could try following that procedure and seeing what turns up?

Sounds very unlikely.  I was printing pdfs with lots of graphics.  Doesn't seem 
like that would be a font issue.

The problem occurs with evince and with okular, but not with adobe acroread.  
I'm taking a wild guess that evince and okular use system libraries to render, 
while acroread is probably self-contained, and the problem is some library like 
cairo.

 Now, when I try to print pdf using either okular or evince, all I get are

 I tried deleting the printer on one machine and re-installing.  This time
 with a cover page.

 The cover page prints.  The other pages print blank.

 I wonder if poppler is to blame.

No, I've gotten past the problem of evince not working with gtk+-oxygen.  The 
problem is that pdfs print blank pages in evince and in okular, but acroread 
prints OK.

Try switching your window decorations away from the Oxygen theme. That's 
the word: that Oxygen is flawed.

After further testing, it appears that PDF printing is broken.  Printing a page 
from google-chrome works fine.

printing broken by f20->f21 update

2014-12-09 Thread Neal Becker
I have 2 machines that have both been updated f20->f21.  Printing was working 
before.

Now, when I try to print pdf using either okular or evince, all I get are blank 
pages.

I tried deleting the printer on one machine and re-installing.  This time with 
a 
cover page.

The cover page prints.  The other pages print blank.

I wonder if poppler is to blame.
