Please provide a document showing the issue.
Also, which version of the Poppler library do you have?

Comment 3 Albert Astals Cid 2010-11-11 20:00:24 UTC
Just to be sure, you are complaining because of the red squares, right?
Comment 4 Elias Probst 2010-11-11 20:05:30 UTC
Uhm, sorry, now.

I actually used the red squares to highlight a really minor glitch in the thumbnail rendering.

If there's a - at the end of a line, it is rendered in this case as a little square block on the bottom of the line.

If this is a thing which is easy to catch, a fix would be nice - if it involves too much work let's just ignore it.
I just tend to find such cosmetical stuff and point it out ;-)
Comment 5 Albert Astals Cid 2010-11-11 20:12:03 UTC
It's an artifact of rendering at small zoom, if you decrease the zoom in the main area you'll get the same output.

Anyway that's the output poppler gives us so feel free to report it at bugs.freedesktop.org
