Thank you for your understanding. ** Description changed: - I am opening a pdf whose page size is of about 2 meters by 1.7 meters, - and Evince doesn't let me zoom in to more that 46%. + 1) lsb_release -rd + Description: Ubuntu Vivid Vervet (development branch) + Release: 15.04 - The maximum allowed zoom in should be a fixed percentage, not a fixed - total size. There's no need to render the whole document to display only - the visible part, and a lot of other programs can handle that same - document and view it at any arbitrary zoom, so this limit is simply - ridiculous. + 2) apt-cache policy evince libcairo2 libpoppler[0-9] + evince: + Installed: 3.14.1-0ubuntu1 + Candidate: 3.14.1-0ubuntu1 + Version table: + *** 3.14.1-0ubuntu1 0 + 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ vivid/main amd64 Packages + 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status + libcairo2: + Installed: 1.13.0~20140204-0ubuntu1 + Candidate: 1.13.0~20140204-0ubuntu1 + Version table: + *** 1.13.0~20140204-0ubuntu1 0 + 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ vivid/main amd64 Packages + 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status + libpoppler47: + Installed: 0.28.1-1ubuntu1 + Candidate: 0.28.1-1ubuntu1 + Version table: + *** 0.28.1-1ubuntu1 0 + 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ vivid/main amd64 Packages + 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status + + 3) What is expected to happen opening + https://launchpadlibrarian.net/193598539/output.pdf in Evince is one may + zoom in to at least the expected 400%. + + 4) What happens instead is one may only zoom in to ~28%. + + WORKAROUND: Use Firefox's built-in PDF viewer: + apt-cache policy firefox + firefox: + Installed: 34.0+build2-0ubuntu0.14.04.1 + Candidate: 34.0+build2-0ubuntu0.14.04.1 + Version table: + *** 34.0+build2-0ubuntu0.14.04.1 0 + 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-updates/main amd64 Packages + 500 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-security/main amd64 Packages + 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status + 28.0+build2-0ubuntu2 0 + 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 Package: evince 3.10.3-0ubuntu10.1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.13.0-29.53-generic 3.13.11.2 Uname: Linux 3.13.0-29-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.2 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Sun Jun 15 18:15:51 2014 InstallationDate: Installed on 2013-10-11 (246 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 13.04 "Raring Ringtail" - Release amd64 (20130424) KernLog: - + SourcePackage: evince UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to trusty on 2014-05-24 (21 days ago) ** Changed in: evince (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: evince (Ubuntu) Status: New => Triaged ** Summary changed: - document viewer has a ridiculous limit for zoomin which depends on the document size + Evince has a low zoom in level depending on the document size -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to evince in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1330226 Title: Evince has a low zoom in level depending on the document size To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince/+bug/1330226/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
