** Description changed: Binary package hint: evince Evince always applies grayscale font smoothing to displayed documents. It should be able to provide subpixel antialiasing to match the appearance of the surrounding GNOME desktop too, if set so in gnome- appearance-properties. - It may be a pure backend issue, please move then to poppler or something - more appropriate. + Steps to reproduce: + + 1. Set font smoothing to "Subpixel (LCDs)" + + 2. Open a PDF document with evince + + 3. Compare how menu fonts and document fonts are displayed. + + + Actual results: + + Grayscale antialiasing for document fonts, subpixel antialiasing for + menu fonts. + + + Expected results: + + Both menu and document fonts are rendered using subpixel antialiasing. + + + It may be a pure backend issue, please move then to poppler or something more appropriate. Hardly possible that this bug has not been reported before, but I've failed to find the original report. Hardy Heron, evince 2.22.2-0ubuntu1
