Description Piotr Sniady 2009-07-26 20:28:51 UTC

Version:           0.9 (using KDE 4.2.98)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

In Okular open a DVI file created with LaTeX, nothing fancy, black and white text, which uses "times" font and open Thumbnails. When the size of the thumbnails is sufficiently big, the thumbnails look fine. When the size of the thumbnails is small, 40% of the area of the thumbnails becomes uniformly read (impossible to see the thumbnail). Not every DVI file with "times" font has this problem; it seems that the "density" of text per page should be big enough.

The problem does not concern PDF nor PostScript files.
