Bug Description

Binary package hint: evince

Software : evince 0.8.1
System : Ubuntu Feisty Fawn

When I tried to view this ps file : http://math.uoregon.edu/~arkadiy/triple.ps evince only show the first page. A conversion of the PS file into a PDF file solved the problem, and other PS viewer (ie : Xpdf) work on this file.

evince also works correctly with all the other PS file I have.

not a bug, upstream comment:

"The problem is that this file is not really a PS document, but a PDF document
with .ps extension. You don't need to convert the file to PDF, just change the
extension and it will work.

Thanks for the bug report. "
