Description Jeremy Sanders 2009-01-16 16:31:21 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.1.3)
Compiler:          gcc 4.3.2 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs

When Okular prints PDF files containing hyperlinks (e.g. generated by latex/dvips or pdflatex), it prints out the green or red rectangles which should only be displayed on the screen. I think this was previously a bug in kpdf which has reappeared.

Please see this example PDF file:
http://arxiv.org/pdf/0811.0743v1

The file shouldn't show green boxes around references or red boxes around internal links.

It currently makes arxiv.org papers unreadable on printout.

What is the version of your poppler-qt4 library?

Comment 2 Jeremy Sanders 2009-01-16 17:28:31 UTC

poppler-qt4-0.8.7-1.fc10.x86_64

Comment 3 Pino Toscano 2009-01-16 17:38:49 UTC

Please update to poppler 0.10, the bug is in poppler and it has been fixed since that serie.

Comment 4 Jeremy Sanders 2009-01-16 17:40:50 UTC

Thanks - I'll file a fedora bug to get poppler updated in Fedora 10.

Comment 5 Rex Dieter 2009-01-16 18:30:20 UTC

Any possibility to consider fixing this in poppler-0.8.x too?  There's almost zero chance of a fedora update to poppler-0.10 that breaks abi.

Comment 6 Rex Dieter 2009-01-16 20:32:22 UTC

nevermind, looks like we've a 0.8 workaround in the meantime.
