the book that can't read
Evince can't display book correcly, just wrong words but some other tools can display well, such as mupdf, foxit reader (close source software).
I use mupdf and can read it correcly, and I notice there is print as below:
nisy@nisy-ubuntu:/media/nisy/sda1_WinXP/_Technology/98_my_project/27_改进开源软件/乱码问题$ mupdf ./1[雅舍菁华].梁秋实.文字版.PDF warning: workaround for S22PDF lying about chinese font encodings warning: ... repeated 2 times ... warning: workaround for S22PDF lying about chinese font encodings warning: ... repeated 2 times ...
so I guess mupdf had workaround to avoid font issue, so I checked in mupdf code,find its code should be:
pdf_load_font
|__pdf_load_simple_font
|__ pdf_load_simple_font_by_name
|__ fz_warn(ctx, "workaround for S22PDF lying about chinese font encodings");Because evince also have font mechanism, so can evince consider to check mupdf 's mechanism, and merge mupdf 's method to avoid this issue? Thanks.
