Bug Description

Binary package hint: evince

Went here only because i've recognized the icon to report bug but the text wasn't readable as all the menus there.

Tried to reinstall it after complete deletion in synaptic.

Tried a deletion of the folder "evince" in .gnome2 of my $HOME folder but without any success.

I know I had a few weeks ago put the Ubuntu font everywhere but don't know if it"s why that doesn't run as well as before..

The same pdf files run well with evince inside the Crunchbang Linux distro I have on another partition of my computer..

I don't know how to have it back working well.

yes it's the same bug than the one here : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince/+bug/631088

By deleting the link to the windows fonts it's fixed.

Thanks a lot Gary !

I'll will select what font I really need before link the whole folder and if that affects evince again, will find an alternative font. (I don't use windows anymore but have that fonts folder only for mail content compatibility : pps files mostly that aren't that important !!)
