Hi Karim,
Thanks for the solution. Actually I can survive with this bug as I can
open eps files by importing them in Gimp. Without this bug, it would
easier for me to select correct eps files by just looking at their
icons, but this is not crucial. I am writing articles in Latex and have
no problem to compile with eps files to create usable pdf files.

> Hi all,

> Karmic's evince (version up to 2.28.1) can not render several eps files I
> have, including the eps file attached, which however can be opened and
> rendered correctly by Hardy's evince (2.22.2). The eps files it can render
> are the ones whose text content can be viewed in Gedit. The eps files it
> cannot render are the binary ones which cannot be opened by Gedit. Nautilus
> also cannot render the icons of these later files.
>
> If I run Karmic's evince from terminal to open the attached eps file, it
> produces these error messages:
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
> $ evince Histogram_ImgOvl2.eps
> undefined -21
> undefined -21
> undefined -21
>
> ** (evince:3061): WARNING **: Error rendering thumbnail
> undefined -21
>
> ** (evince:3061): WARNING **: Error rendering thumbnail
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> In contrast, with Hardy's evince the same file can be opened without any
> error.
