Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: evince
Hi,
I updated my gutsy/AMD64 install around the end of June, and suddenly
incurred a lot of PDF problems. One problem that remains is that evince
can no longer view PDF files created by latex. What happens is that the
entire page of document text now display in the upper left quarter of
the screen, while the rest is blank. On the other hand, images display
correctly.
If I zoom in, then the images get larger, but the text does not.
Additionally, math text works OK (e.g. math fonts, math symbols). The
PDF documents display correctly in acroread (on another machine) or in
xpdf (on this machine). But Evince displays the test incorrectly.
Interestingly, in the preview images, the text is actually slightly too
large.
Also, anti-aliasing is messed up.
Here is a summary of the fonts in the PDF:
