[poppler] Followup Bug 32349 & Poppler: More shading fun ;-)

Fri Dec 31 06:28:54 PST 2010

Not sure what version of Acrobat/Reader on what OS platform you tested with, but Acrobat X Pro on Windows just opened and rendered these documents quite fine.  (though they look really weird!)

Wow, that's really good!

I'd like to provide another set of "difficult" radial gradients,
because the test
I posted isn't checking some interesting cases (in particular the case where
start and end circle are tangent):
http://people.freedesktop.org/~ranma42/cairo/radial/

This folder contains some pdf files and the expected rasterization.
Adobe Reader seems to be unable to display these files (it just hangs),
so I also created some "reduced" versions:
http://people.freedesktop.org/~ranma42/cairo/radial/

Adobe Reader can display the reduced files, but all of them look incorrect
in the second column (start circle tangent inside end circle).

Sorry for trying so hard to make your code fail ;P
FWIW I'm doing the same against my own radial gradient implementation
in pixman (which right now fails with tangent circles, but I already have a
patch to fix it).
