Version: 0.12.2 (using KDE 4.6.2) OS: Linux Some of my PDF files display the correct filename in the titlebar. Others display messages like: "ime20133 1..6" or "j403_6g 103..108". It's not consistent. These are scientific journal articles. The journal might have embedded data suggesting a file name, or, it could be a more generic bug. Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: Open pdf file. Look at title bar. Verify that title bar name isn't the actual file name. Expected Results: The title bar should display the filename as it exists on my computer. OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.38-8-generic Compiler: cc
Could you please attach one of the documents you are having problems with?
See what you have in each document as "Title" in File -> Properties.
@Pino Toscano: That's exactly what it is. The File->Properties->Title shows some bogus database title from the publisher. The ones that display the proper filename as the title do not. It seems like a design decision to not always use the filename. This really messes things up when I have multiple files open. Other PDF readers I've used ignore the filename property. Can you set a policy that filename over rides Property Title or vice-versa? You can leave it as an option in settings, although, I can't think of a scenario where you would need it. It seems like the sort of thing that could be exploited for phishing.
