I guess I know why upstream cairo never made it into Firefox: Mozilla's
version of cairo is more like a fork than a version of cairo with a few
patches applied.
Not only that: Some of the patches are documented in .patch files and a
README. And some are not documented at all with just the change i
Thomas, probably it is possible to build FF and TB with the system's
libcairo. I do not know why the maintainers of these packages stick to
stone-old libraries which have many bugs which are already fixed in the
current version.
But I will not do this fix as I am not the maintainer of FF and TB. T
In ubuntu 16.04, I tried out the libcairo which ubuntu comes shipped
with and compiled FF47.0 myself, using the build-option --enable-system-
cairo.
After the change, it works: I can finally print https://www.dab-

As of ubuntu 16.04, I can now print some PDFs in evince (16.04 ships
v3.18.2), which were not printable before. Therefore, I don't have to
use okular for that purpose any more (workaround for 14.04).
Basically, if FF knew about a new libcairo and that helped, this whole
issue would be fixed for 16
@till-kamppeter As of Firefox 47.0, ubuntu 16.04, this is still not
fixed.
During the update (coming from 14.04) I got asked via cups configuration
if I wanted to opt-in for pre-filtering via cups. Which I opted in, in
the hope that pdfs get rendered in a way my old printer is capable to

Then report a bug to them, telling that the print rendering (PDF output)
is fixed in Cairo 1.13 and that this needs to get backported somehow
into Gecko, either by switching to 1.13 or doing another patch. Please

As far as I can see, gecko ubstream uses cairo 1.9.5 from 2010-01-21
which they are patching over and over.

In cups-filters one could introduce a filter named oldcairopdftopdf to
be run before pdftopdf if the incoming PDF is from a too old Cairo
version. One could introduce a new MIME type to make CUPS detect such
PDF. The new filter would simply run this PDF to some command line
progrem which regenerate
I guess that Cairo is part of the Gecko engine which then is used by
firefox and thunderbird.
My Firefox 40.0.3 comes shipped with Gecko/20100101 according to
about:support tab:
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:40.0) Gecko/20100101

which basically explains why cairo is so
The problem seems to be that Firefox and Thunderbird use too old Cairo
libraries. There for I add tasks for these two applications.
To the maintainers of Firefox and Thunderbird: Please check for the
maintained versions of Ubuntu which Cairo versions are actually used and
if one can somehow use a

I've sent the pdf files to http://pdf-analyser.edpsciences.org to see
what the difference is.
All samples provide the same set of fonts.
But there is a difference between the non-working samples and working samples:
non-working test2.pdf and print-to-file.pdf are reported to be created by cairo
The only workaround I'm aware of is to use the "print to file" dialog
and then print the corresponding print-to-file.pdf with evince.
When I print the file with evince, I can find a file in /var/spool/cups
which I renamed to print-to-file-cups-from-evince.pdf. Note that this
