I don't know about Fedora. I submitted the bugreport to the Debian BTS and not upstream. On Debian the "xpdf" executable is a wrapper script that creates a temporary decompressed file if the user opens a compressed PDF. >From the Debian xpdf man page: You can also start xpdf without opening any files: xpdf Various compressed formats (gz, bz2, xz, and Z) are also supported, for example:: xpdf file.pdf.gz Best regards. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
