[Bug 828917] [NEW] When printing a pdf in duplex mode using Document Viewer 2.32.0, text is missing from every second page, horizontal lines are printed instead.

 

Public bug reported:

1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System -> About Ubuntu
I am using 64 bit Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick Meerkat).

2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy pkgname' or by checking in Software Center
$apt-cache policy evince
evince:
  Installed: 2.32.0-0ubuntu1.1
  Candidate: 2.32.0-0ubuntu1.1
  Version table:
 *** 2.32.0-0ubuntu1.1 0

     2.32.0-0ubuntu1 0

3) What you expected to happen
I use this package to view .pdf files. I expected the .pdf I wanted to print to be printed as it appears on the screen.

4) What happened instead
Every odd sheet is printed as it should, even sheets contain horizontal lines as shown on the image file I attached. I use the words 'odd' and 'even' to refer to the sheets printed (as opposed to: page numbers).

I opened the file using Foxit Reader in Windows XP Professional. Duplex
printing works as it should.
