I'd also like to confirm that I'm having this problem. In any case, I
found that if you export to LaTeX and remove the
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc} line and then regenerate the pdf, the problem
goes away. I can zoom upto 6400% without any blurriness or pixelation.
This is rather inelegant but clearly theres a bug in that particular
package that needs to be fixed.

For what it's worth, I can confirm this problem in Jaunty as well. I also upgraded from Intrepid, but had the problem originally there as well. (Actually, I think Intrepid was an upgrade from an initial Hardy install as well.) Does anyone experience this bug on a fresh install of Jaunty or a later release?

In Lucid Lynx evince seems to become the default renderer for dvi- files. I use Tex-Suite in Vim.

[Bug 376233] Re: dvi render blurry
it looks like being a zoom-related problem. I downloaded the Intro.dvi file, and on 100% it would render blurry. Setting the zoom to best fit (with buttons, *not* with the drop-down menu) and increasing to 100% (with increase zoom), it would look right (not perfect, but much less blurry). Setting the zoom to fit page width and then reducing to 100% (with decrease zoom), it would look blurry again. Other documents work the other way round. -- dvi render blurry https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/376233 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I'd like to confirm this bug in Karmic. Blurry dvi rendering in evince, but PDF rendering is fine. dvi rendering in okular has a different problem in okular, as the anti-aliasing isn't on for some reason. xdvi seems to render the fonts sharply/correctly. -- dvi render blurry https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/376233 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 376233] Re: dvi render blurry
I also see the same problem, and it also started with the upgrade to Jaunty. What could be the difference between an upgrade and a clean install that might be impacting evince? I tried to clean the font cache, but didn't help. Then I saw that xdvi uses type1 fonts and so I tried recompiling evince with type1 support for dvi (it's not turned on in the default jaunty package). Now evince seems to be using type1 fonts, judging from the output of KPATHSEA_DEBUG=-1 evince /tmp/test.dvi Unfortunately, still no change - blurry DVI output.

I have attached a screen shot comparing evince and xdvi showing the same file at roughly the same zoom (as close as I can get). xdvi(right) is more readable than evince(left).

Re: [Bug 376233] Re: dvi render blurry
This blurry render seems to be affected by the zooming level. In this particular file (LyX introduction), it's crispy at 70% and 200%, and blurry at 50%, 85%, 100%, 125%, 150%, 175%, 300%.
