             Bug #: 52634
           Summary: cairo: invalid matrix for PDFs with UU CS LaTeX beamer
                    theme
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: poppler
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: x86-64 (AMD64)
        OS/Version: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: cairo backend
        AssignedTo: poppler-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: raymond_w at zonnet.nl


Slides created with a LaTeX beamer theme used by (part of) the CS department of
Utrecht University fail to render correctly with poppler-0.20.x. The first page
shows the background colors, subsequent pages are just gray. Text is invisible
unless selected. I can neither see nor click the beamer navigation elements (or
other images).

Example pdfs: all slides (except the last, since it's .ppt) available on
http://www.cs.uu.nl/wiki/bin/view/Apa/CourseSchedule

Tested using evince/zathura. When run from a terminal, the error "Internal
Error: cairo context error: invalid matrix (not invertible)" shows up
repeatedly. Downgrading poppler and poppler-glib to 0.18.4 (all with Arch Linux
packages) 'fixes' it. As far as I can tell, I have had cairo-1.12.2 since I
first noticed this issue (but also with the working poppler-0.18.x).

(same problem with daily image of Ubuntu 12.10 amd64, which should also be
0.20.x)
