I would like this bug to be considered for a Stable Release Update to 14.04 (and 14.10 if applicable)
[Impact] * Many PDFs do not display correctly, including the boarding passes from a major European airline * Printing a boarding pass is a common simple task which users expect to work, and therefore should be fixed in the stable release. * see upstream bug report for discussion about the mechanism of the fix. [Test Case] * attempt to view the test case in the linked upstream bug using 'evince attachment.pdf' * observe corrupted text displayed [Regression Potential] * theoretically, other PDFs which currently display correctly could be displayed incorrectly after this change, but is intended to emulate acroread, so this is unlikely. * patch has been reviewed and committed upstream, so should be safe [Other Info] * none -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to poppler in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1412916 Title: evince: Bad PDF rendering: invalid font scale Status in Poppler: Fix Released Status in poppler package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Evince in ubuntu 14.04 (3.10.3-0ubuntu10.1) suffers from this bug: https://www.libreoffice.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=78042 The test case which is attached to the upstream bug demonstrates the problem with Evince in Ubuntu.
