Package: xpdf-reader Version: 3.00-13.6 Severity: normal Hi!
It seems that Xpdf lacks support for "shading type 4". Or maybe the following behaviour is caused by a bug, I don't know... Steps to reproduce the misbehaviour on a sarge box: # aptitude install mayavi $ mayavi /usr/share/doc/mayavi/examples/heart.mv Using menus, select File -> Save Scene to -> Vector PS/EPS/PDF/Tex (GL2PS) In the dialog window, enter "foo" as File name and click on the Save button. In the next dialog window, select SetFileFormatToPDF and click on the Close button. $ xpdf foo.pdf Error: Unimplemented shading type 4 \ Error: Unimplemented shading type 4 | Error: Unimplemented shading type 4 > 56 lines (in total) [...] | Error: Unimplemented shading type 4 / The PDF file is not completely shown. That is to say, some graphical elements are not displayed: the background is white rather than gray, the central isosurface is missing, along with the central vertical plane, the color legend is invisible. Another PDF viewer (gv) is able to display the file correctly: $ gv foo.pdf and gv (slowly) shows the visualization with correct colors and no missing element. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.4.33.3 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages xpdf-reader depends on: ii gsfonts 8.14+v8.11+urw-0.2 Fonts for the Ghostscript interpre ii lesstif2 1:0.93.94-11.4 OSF/Motif 2.1 implementation relea ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-22sarge4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libfreetype6 2.1.7-6 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libgcc1 1:3.4.3-13sarge1 GCC support library ii libice6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14sarge2 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libpaper1 1.1.14-3 Library for handling paper charact ii libsm6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14sarge2 X Window System Session Management ii libstdc++5 1:3.3.5-13 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libt1-5 5.0.2-3 Type 1 font rasterizer library - r ii libx11-6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14sarge2 X Window System protocol client li ii libxext6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14sarge2 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii libxp6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14sarge2 X Window System printing extension ii libxpm4 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14sarge2 X pixmap library ii libxt6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14sarge2 X Toolkit Intrinsics ii xlibs 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14sarge2 X Keyboard Extension (XKB) configu ii xpdf-common 3.00-13.6 Portable Document Format (PDF) sui ii zlib1g 1:1.2.2-4.sarge.2 compression library - runtime -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
