xpdf cannot and filemanagers may get confused too. Most important, "less" that has been educated to page the text content of pdf files gets confused. Given that less is the only tool to read documentation on servers that do not have a graphical environment, I still think that the bug is relevant.
I agree it is not very serious, but to have compressed pdfs is a burden to the user while it is very easy for packagers to state that pdf files should not be compressed. This is very similar to have help files where the symbol "#" substitutes the letter "e". It would not be very serious and it would not prevent using the help files. Yet it would be a burden that it is better to avoid. And I guess it would be judged a bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/84171 Title: compressing already compressed files should be avoided -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
