Details

    • Bug
    • Resolution: Out of scope
    • P3: Somewhat important
    • 4.8.x
    • 4.7.4
    • GUI: Printing, WebKit
    • None
    • Windows7 + Qt4.7.4 (tested also with Qt4.8.0RC)

    Description

      Attached example.zip includes an example application (modified from $QTDIR\examples\webkit\preview example app) which can be used to reproduce the error. Steps:

      • Launch the application and select File - Open. Open a file 'transparent_PNG_sample.html' which is also attached on the .zip.
      • Select Print - Print PDF. Type file name and press Save.
      • Open 'GIF_sample.html' by selecting File - Open.
      • Select Print - Print PDF. Type file name and press Save.

      Compare the PDF printing output for 'transparent_PNG_sample.html' and 'GIF_sample.html' (attached .zip file includes examples of printing outputs).

      --> Error: PDF created from 'transparent_PNG_sample.html' includes text with bold font. PDF created from 'GIF_sample.html' includes text with non-bold font. The only difference between these html files is that 'transparent_PNG_sample.html' uses transparent PNG file instead of GIF file.

      Tested with Qt4.7.4 and Qt4.8.0RC.
