[poppler] FreeText font/border color in DA - ISO32k vs Adobe Reader vs poppler

That helped - thanks!

It appears that even though we are parsing the DA for the text colors (and storing them in a variable that tracks the GState of the DA) - we don't actually use those text colors when we generate AP (as you are seeing) ☹.   Definite bug on our end.

I'll file it here and we'll see about addressing it in a future release.

So my recommendation to you - do the right thing and don't follow our bug.

Leonard

Hi Leonard, thanks for answering,

I think Tobias accidentally posted the wrong link.  He meant

An example file is posted there.  For your convenience, here is the direct link:
