Evince suddenly fails to display pdf page after clicking next button, brings the system down to a crawl indicating loading page message,this appears to be a memory leak, also some postcript pages do not display at all, in the the thumbnail pane there is an indication of a picture on the page but in the reading window there is nothing,when converted to pdf there is indeed a picture on the page, on cbz and djvu files when scrolling the thumbnails will flash wildly until you scroll up or down a little. This is getting outrageous now, some of these problems have been plaguing people from gutsy days.
Evince is the main document viewer in Ubuntu it is really a shame to have to go back to Acrobat reader to reliably read pdf documents, equally shameful is that PDF-XChange Viewer under wine works better than Evince with far more features as far as pdf docs are concerned, Evince is a nice looking viewer and reads almost everything and should be given high priority it should be one of the stablest applications in Gnome, even if the problem is with the poppler back end the fact remains that Evince is almost unusable, this is not good at all, document reading is so important on the computer nowadays. -- Evince locks up reading PDF document https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/234743 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to poppler in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
