I suppose, that it's not a bug of evince but a feature... Since version
2.27.4 in ev-print-operation.c the lines
export->fc.format = file_format && g_ascii_strcasecmp (file_format, "pdf") == 0
?
EV_FILE_FORMAT_PDF : EV_FILE_FORMAT_PS;
changed to
if (file_format) {
export->fc.format = g_ascii_strcasecmp (file_format, "pdf") ==
0 ?
EV_FILE_FORMAT_PDF : EV_FILE_FORMAT_PS;
} else {
export->fc.format = gtk_printer_accepts_pdf (printer) ?
EV_FILE_FORMAT_PDF : EV_FILE_FORMAT_PS;
}
so that evince > 2.27.3 sends pdf-file (if print system supports pdf-input)
even if file_format is NULL what ever - I don't understand it completely...
In the case of the problematic files evince sends pdf-files since version
2.27.4 and ps-files in earlier versions. This change causes the problem. But
the bug probably lies not in evince?!?
