[Bug 209145] Re: Evince couldnot display chinese pdf files
Same problem with kpdf 0.5.9 / poppler 0.6.4 in mixed pdfs. displays the english fine, but displays garbage for the chinese. System is a clean install of Kubuntu 8.04 xpdf works fine. kpdf 0.5.6 / poppler 0.5.4 on Kubuntu 7.04 worked fine. Am filing here as I assume the problem is also poppler, and so should not open a separate bug report. If I should open a separate bug report, let me know. If you want screenshots, let me know. If you want tea and biscuits, let me know. Have not tried poppler 0.8 - am not sure how. Not confident I know how. -- Evince couldnot display chinese pdf files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/209145 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 209145] Re: Evince couldnot display chinese pdf files
I have to eat my words and withdraw the comment above. After re-reading Pedro Villavicencio comments above, I re-checked what was installed and compared the 7.04 and 8.04 systems, and discovered poppler-data was not on the 8.04 system. So I installed it, and as if by miracle, Chinese appeared. I should note that there was no poppler-data on the 7.04 system - and the Chinese worked. I should also note that how a humble user would know he/she must install poppler-data to read Chinese remains unresolved. Lucky there is launchpad to find this stuff out! -- Evince couldnot display chinese pdf files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/209145 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
