wrong PDF display

[ousia]

As reported in sumatrapdfreader/sumatrapdf#112, pdf.js-1.0.1185 displays wrong the following file:

Here you have the mandatory screenshot:

evince-3.10 and mupdf-1.6 display the file right.

Reproduced in Fireox 36.0 on Linux. Looks good in Chromium 41.0.2272.77

I cannot reproduce, using: Windows 7 (64-bit), Firefox Nightly 39 (buildID: 20150307030233) with HWA on, and PDF.js 1.0.1185.
Perhaps a Linux (and Firefox) only issue? This is how PDF.js renders it on my computer:

I can confirm that this renders fine on Windows.

Slightly offtopic, but fow do you find v1.0.1185?

As far I can tell it would seem this repo on github makes no reference to that version, only v1.0.1149.

[timvandermeij]

@wamatt You can always find the latest version number at https://github.com/mozilla/pdfjs-dist/releases which is updated everytime we merge a pull request. Note that this is only the development (alpha) version number: the stable and beta version numbers are listed on https://mozilla.github.io/pdf.js/getting_started/#download.

Ahh got it now, thanks @timvandermeij . I was having an issue with a Chinese character form, and the alpha seems v1.0.1185 to have sorted it out!

Will also keep in mind though that it's bleeding edge and may introduce new issues in future.

I can confirm that the original PDF is also broken in the same way on Arch Linux with Firefox 37.0.1.

I also got an issue of "black" layer below some images. Here is the sample pdf : http://www.sstrn.fr/sites/default/files/pdf/sstrn_guide_des_services_aux_adherents_web.pdf

Below the coloured squares with text, 4 squares are black in FF, and not in chrome.
