Horizontal dotted line, gets misrendered by poppler
Fat Dotted lines are not always rendered correctly. See for example the
attached pdf file "test.pdf", which was created using the following python
snippet:
-----------------------
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pylab as plt
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
fig.patch.set_visible(False)
ax.axis('off')
myx = np.linspace(0,1)
plt.plot(myx, np.zeros_like(myx), "b:",linewidth=10)
plt.savefig("test.pdf")
------------------------
When I open the resulting file in okular, I get annoying fat dots along the
horizontal line as shown in the attached file "test_dump.png". If I save
instead of .pdf in .png (or .eps) format, okular gives me what is shown in
"test_dump_correct.png", which is also resembling what comes on the screen.
This misrenedering happens with okular, but also with xpdf, which brought me to
the conclusion that this might be a problem in poppler, which I understand is
the underlying library.</pre>
