Description Raphael Groner 2012-07-18 19:31:34 CEST
Description of problem:
I can't print some pdf files. In the web interface, for the failed jobs, there is an error "/usr/lib/cups/filter/pdftops failed". Nothing suspicious in /var/log/cups/error_log. Launchpad says that there's a fix from upstream for a similiar problem. 

Small pdf files without huge content do not seem to cause any problems. So I suspect there's an issue with the filter and big content.

My printer is a Samsung ML-1640, so I don't understand the possible connection to hplip (see launchpad bug). I'm using Splix.

I tried epdfview and evince.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
cups-1.5.3-5.mga3
cups-drivers-splix-2.0.0-4.mga1
poppler-0.20.2-1.mga3

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. print a pdf
2.
3.

We have a new poppler in cauldron that fixes a crash in pdftops, did this fix your problem?
(/usr/lib/cups/filter/pdftops uses /usr/bin/pdftops which uses libpoppler)

CC: (none) => cjw

Thanks for the hint.

I think it's fixed. At least, I can't reproduce the issue with the new poppler.

Status: NEW => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => FIXED
