Description Tristan Miller 2010-03-05 15:39:38 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.4.1)
Installed from:    openSUSE RPMs

Okular displays only the last page of PostScript files which lack a %%Page: comment.

Reproducibility: Always

Steps to reproduce:
1. $ ls -l /usr/bin | enscript -p ls.ps
2. $ grep -v '^%%Page' ls.ps > ls-nopage.ps
3. $ okular ls-nopage.ps

Observed behaviour:
4. Okular displays only the last page of ls-nopage.ps.

Expected behaviour:
4. Okular should have displayed all the pages of ls-nopage.ps, the same way it does when it displays ls.ps.

Note that this was previously reported for kghostview as Bug 23970.

Oh, and note that this isn't a contrived example—there are published PostScript files out there in the wild which lack %%Page: comments.
Comment 2 Pino Toscano 2010-03-05 16:01:08 UTC 
This is a bug of the library we use for reading PostScript files, called libspectre.
