[Bug 1391567] Re: evince prints transparent parts of images in PDFs as black

 

Apologies, this was a bug in pdftops on our print server, triggered
because evince (unlike okular and xpdf) sends PDF to the print server.

(marked bug as invalid)

** Changed in: evince (Ubuntu)

Title:
  evince prints transparent parts of images in PDFs as black

Status in “evince” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 14.04.1
  evince version 3.10.3-0ubuntu10.1

  If a PDF contains an image with a transparent background, evince prints the transparent parts of
  that image as black.

  I attach a test case, generated by doodling in the gimp, exporting as PNG, and then
  convert test.png test.pdf

  Printing test.pdf from evince will show a black background to the image.
  Printing test.pdf from okular or xpdf produces a page with a white (paper) background.
