The latest branch of gtk+/glib/pango, which uses the cairo rendering
engine, has some issues. evince-0.3.2, linked against these libraries,
has problems rendering certain, but not all, PDF and PS files.
When there is a "problem", text and line-art are drawn in the background
color, rendering them invisible.
Clicking on
menu->edit->Select ALL
shows the text/line-art is there, albeit rendered in the background
color. Evince is also able to print the "invisible" contents
correctly.
The following make provide a hint:
% evince NVP_Membership_Application_2005.pdf
** (evince:21749): WARNING **: Starting evince process.
(evince:21749): Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_drawable_get_size:
assertion `GDK_IS_DRAWABLE (drawable)' failed
(evince:21749): Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_window_get_position:
assertion `GDK_IS_WINDOW (window)' failed
Note that the stable branch, 2.10.1, does not have this problem.
Life in the fast lane...
