Attachments: kghostview displays pages of this file backwards

Description Tristan Miller 2003-12-01 11:33:36 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1.4)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

With certain Postscript files, kghostview displays the pages in the wrong order.  I will attach a sample file exhibiting this behaviour.  This file displays correctly with gv and ghostview, but with kghostview the order of the pages is reversed.

This file displays properly in gv and ghostview, but not with kghostview.

Confirming.

This is because the file is in reverse order (i believe that's what you mean), but with a "%%PageOrder: descend" marker.

To be fixed, but probably not before 3.2.

This problem also occurs in Okular; see Bug 175655.

The Okular bug — libspectre bug, actually — has been fixed.
