I don't know if this is the same bug, but I have a problem importing PDF or PS files generated by LTspice (http://www.linear.com/designtools/software/): When importing such a file in Inkscape 0.48 or also in 0.91, the content is correctly shown in the preview window, but in the main window, all text boxes only contain kind-of-random characters (look like control codes present in the original PS file). Please find attached a PS file showing this behaviour. If I convert it to PDF first using ps2pdf, the same happens as well. Other programs like evince or the Nautilus previewer show the file correctly. Converting the file to SVG first or using the new 'Import via Poppler' option work nicely, so there is a workaround at least.

Thanks.
