Title:
Text does not display in Evince or other pdf viewers
Status in Evince document viewer:
Invalid
Status in Poppler:
Fix Released
Status in “evince” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Binary package hint: evince
I just upgraded to Karmic Koala 9.10 from 9.04.
Before upgrading, I was able to view the pdf at http://www.accuratepowder.com/data/Acc%20Guide%20v3.3%20version.pdf
without any problems.
Now, when I open it in Evince (or xpdf, or epdfview), most of the text
is not visible. Specifically the load data that is found in charts for
most of the document.
I have verified that the same file displays correctly in Windows XP.
Another computer using Karmic Koala also does not display the text.
It seemed to be a font problem from looking at the error messages, so
I tried installing all the windows fonts I have into Ubuntu using the
instructions found here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Fonts
The fonts installed successfully, but the text in the document still
does not display.
