Description tanrui 2012-11-18 03:00:50 UTC 
I use the windows port of KDE from http://windows.kde.org
Okular can correctly display the dvi file when the font is the default font of latex (computer modern), but Okular crashes when other fonts (e.g., times) are used, the error message is "Fatal error: Wrong command byte found in VF macro list: 255   This probably means that ...." Note that I have tried two latex distributions (miktex and texlive), the issue persists.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a latex document 'test.tex':
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{times}
\begin{document}
Test.
\end{document}

2. Compile the latex document by:
latex test.tex

3. Use okular to open 'test.dvi'

Actual Results:  
Okular crashes


Expected Results:  
A document with text "Test." displayed in Times font.

This bug is specific to the windows port of KDE.

Windows guys, any help with this? It works fine in Linux here.

Can you reproduce this on newer versions of okular for windows?
