-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 The backend that generates the pdf is I think libcairo2 which is at version 1.8.8 in Karmic: http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/libcairo2
However the problem is not I think in libcairo2 but perhaps in the interaction between Firefox 3.5 (Shiretoko) and libcairo2 which maybe is not working properly. The libcairo2 1.8.8 library does not seem to have the same issue when Epiphany 2.28 attempts to 'Print to file' .pdf as hopefully the attached examples hopefully show. Next attachment examples are working well so no problems I think: cheesyKarmicAthlonEpiphany228cairo188output5filledPages.ps cheesyKarmicAthlonEpiphany228cairo188output5filledPages.pdf Both of the above have all pages filled so I think no problems there. Now what comes next are Firefox 3.5 not working so well as the .ps and .pdf have matching page counts but the .pdf versions are incomplete as described in the original bug report description #459013 by brazz cheesyKarmicSempronFF35cairo188latestShiretoko7filledPages.ps cheesyKarmicSempronFF35cairo188latestShiretoko1filled6blank.pdf Now I attempt to go back to older Firefox3.0 which uses cairo 1.8.6 to try and explore if it is an issue with just 1.8.8 version of cairo but similar behaviour observed with 1.8.6 from Firefox 3.0.14 cheesyJauntyFF3014cairo186output7filledPages.ps cheesyJauntyFF3014cairo186output1filled6blank.pdf In understanding this comment entry please think less of the number of total pages, but see the presence of blank pages in the .pdf (compared with .ps generated by same Web Browser version) as being the issue to support the original bug report. Checking which version of cairo generated a .pdf from within Document Viewer (Evince) I used File/Properties menu option and read off the 'Creator' field. To reproduce the examples here firstly do 'Print to File' and 'Postscript' (.ps) and then repeat but using 'Print to File' and PDF (.pdf) All examples based on viewing in Firefox the recipe at: http://www.dazzledish.com/blog/recipes/appetizer/cheesy-broccoli-and-potato-soup/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkr3fNcACgkQzgIi0OuM/w5I8ACdF2ovzCMXVSpjvYMMu6KbV+qY ZA4AnRqLkW3VLGWSJjID5avmRf8DpuW8 =/hvR -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ** Attachment added: "cheesyKarmicAthlonEpiphany228cairo188output5filledPages.ps" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/35395230/cheesyKarmicAthlonEpiphany228cairo188output5filledPages.ps ** Attachment added: "cheesyKarmicAthlonEpiphany228cairo188output5filledPages.pdf" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/35395231/cheesyKarmicAthlonEpiphany228cairo188output5filledPages.pdf ** Attachment added: "cheesyKarmicSempronFF35cairo188latestShiretoko7filledPages.ps" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/35395232/cheesyKarmicSempronFF35cairo188latestShiretoko7filledPages.ps ** Attachment added: "cheesyKarmicSempronFF35cairo188latestShiretoko1filled6blank.pdf" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/35395233/cheesyKarmicSempronFF35cairo188latestShiretoko1filled6blank.pdf ** Attachment added: "cheesyJauntyFF3014cairo186output7filledPages.ps" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/35395234/cheesyJauntyFF3014cairo186output7filledPages.ps ** Attachment added: "cheesyJauntyFF3014cairo186output1filled6blank.pdf" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/35395235/cheesyJauntyFF3014cairo186output1filled6blank.pdf -- firefox prints only one page, even there are 10 ... https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/459013 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
