Letter alignment of diagonal text regressed in Firefox 47 on Linux #7342
Comments
This is related to #7277 where we first spotted this. As far as I know this has not yet been reported upsteam. Could someone take care of that who knows where the right place is to report this issue? |
I noticed that it's broken in Firefox 46 on Android already, and updated the initial comment accordingly. |
@fkaelberer Does this still happen? It seems fixed for my using Firefox 47.0.1 on Arch Linux and the bots also don't have this problem anymore, so I think upstream uplifted a patch for this. |
Still broken with pdf.js 1.5.343 / Firefox 48.0b6. Edit: on Android. I just tested Linux Mint and the issue does appear in Firefox 48b9 but not on Firefox 47.0 or 50.0a1 (2016-07-11). |
@fkaelberer Based on your "Not Affected:" list above, it seems that this has been fixed upstream. |
@Snuffleupagus Awesome tool ;-) |
Thank you for looking into that! Based on these findings I'm closing this issue as fixed, also since it's not something we can address in PDF.js as it's really a browser bug. |
What could perhaps be done is to comment in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1274111, referring to e.g. this issue and pointing out that it's affecting the PDF viewer in Firefox on Linux, and ask if the patch could be uplifted to Firefox 48. |
Sounds good. It might prevent issues for the next release(s). |
