"for several days now evince displays PDF files generated by printing
with firefox to cupspdf incorrectly. It renders embedded graphics as
black boxes (example attached).

I still can print and display these files with okular correctly, so I
guess it is a problem of evince. (I first opened a bug for ghostscript
but then realized that my printer's queue and okular process it
correctly.)" BTW acroread is not showing the graphics either but it
works fine with xpdf. Thanks!.

The problem is cupspdf has turned the images into Type 3 fonts. The
cairo output from poppler does not support Type 3 fonts with color
images and it would not be easy to fix.

I'm not sure if the PDF standard allows Type 3 fonts with color images.
The fact that acroread also fails to render the images in this file
suggests this is either not permitted or a corner case that no one uses.

I suggest using the builtin PDF writing capability of firefox (print to
file in the print dialog). It produces a smaller better quality PDF and
unlike the cupspdf output the text can be copied and pasted from the
PDF.
