It doesn't show anything for 90° and 270°, just warnings about matrices. So I've tested this also with some other PostScript files and I've seen that the rotation doesn't work for any of them. I've prepared a patch which performs the rotation by inserting command "rotate" to the PostScript program right after %%EndSetup and adjusting of offsets accordingly. I've tested the patch for rendering of slices and it works. But I'm not entirely sure whether it will work in every situation.

Basically, this isn't a bug. If you want to rotate an EPS you absolutely should NOT be doing so by using /Orientation, which is a media selection parameter. You should instead use '90 rotate' or similar to set up the CTM before you render the EPS." @Marek: I tried your patch on some of the files from the Ubuntu bug, e.g https://bugs.launchpad.net/libspectre/+bug/1242678/+attachment/3886169/+files/test.eps ... it fixes the "nothing is displayed" but the orientation seems wrong (rotated from 90° compared to gs and 180° compared to what portrait should be (e.g axis/labels are wrong)). Not sure if that's a bug in the documents or in the change though Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libspectre/+bug/1242678/comments/24 ** Changed in: libspectre Status: Unknown => Confirmed ** Changed in: libspectre Importance: Unknown => Medium ** Bug watch added: Red Hat Bugzilla #1031838 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1031838 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to libspectre in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1242678 Title: evince cannot render some EPS files To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/evince/+bug/1242678/+subscriptions -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
