Title:
It doesn't display the text of the pdf, only numbers and mathematic
symbols/letters
Status in evince package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
1)Ububtu 13.4
2)evince 3.6.1-1ubuntu3
3)View pdf
4)Incomplete display as all the words were missing. Only numbers and mathematical letters/symbols were displayed
Additional info:
Note that I have in my system the truetype fonts from the package Restricted extras and that the pdf's language is Greek.
I checked with one of the pdf files, and it doesn't have embeded all
the fonts. The program chose the ones to use. Some of them had the
same name, some others didn't (even though they existed in the system
fonts folder). I checked the fonts used with Font Manager and they
displayed Greek text correctly.
I also tried some other pdf viewers for Linux, but none of them
worked. The only program that worked was the Adobe Reader.
The text is there and I can copy it and paste it somewhere else. But
you can't see it at the pdf even when highlighted.
