@dave945: thanks for the examples, could you add a screenshot showing the issue? The text seems fine there on the current Ubuntu serie, the issue might have been fixed in newer poppler/evince versions (in which case we should look at what commit fixed it and if it can be backported to the lts)

For an example, go to http://www.nesa.org/ and open the NESA application PDF. Go to page 4 of 6. See the sideways (landscape) form. Rotate it so you can read it, and try filling it out. Your letters and numbers will appear sideways. Ubuntu 9.10, Document Viewer 2.28.1 using poppler 0.12.0 (cairo) e-mail me for any clarifications. very gratefully, David Tabor To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince/+bug/594426/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
