 <<<Back 1 day (to 2013/08/04)2013/08/05 
Robbes hi there, good morning07:20.43 
sebras Robbes: hi.08:49.43 
tor7 http://www.dkriesel.com/en/blog/2013/0802_xerox-workcentres_are_switching_written_numbers_when_scanning ... when jbig2 compression goes wrong09:10.33 
kens2 Wow, that's *really* bad...09:11.32 
sebras I saw this yesterday and I assumed you guys already knew about it... :)09:14.41 
  on a related note: mirabilos reported yesterday (and I verified) that the testsuite for jbig2dec fails. do you guys run this in your cluster?09:15.42 
kens2 Only as part of GS/MuPDF09:16.06 
  So no, we don't run any jbig2 test suites09:16.25 
sebras kens2: well that explains why mirabilos reported the issue and why the tests still fail. I think the jb2-files come from jbig2dec.sf.net, but the tests are actually in the jbig2dec repo at git.ghostscript.com.09:19.25 
Robbes ah, im back :)09:52.19 
  I was playing around with gs in windows, 9.0709:52.30 
  i've been creating pdfa209:52.42 
  What I saw was that the PDF version got 1.4, but PDF/A-2 should be PDF1.7. Why does it go down to 1.4 ?09:53.29 
kens2 oversight probably, raise a but report.09:56.36 
  bug*09:57.19 
  I'm not certainthat its a requirement of PDF/A-2 to be 1.7 though, I'd have to check the spoec09:57.46 
Robbes ok.. i'll fill in a bug report10:08.35 
  another question: if I have a valid PDF/A-1a (created by MS Word), and I let gs create it into a PDF/A-1 or PDF/A-2, it comes out as a PDF/A-*b10:09.38 
  why doesn't it leave the tags in (conformance with -1a and -2a) ?10:10.00 
kens2 we don't support a10:11.17 
Robbes yes, but.. now a user should first validate conformance, and then decide to use gs or not :/10:12.38 
  because it strips out the -1a conformance tags10:12.57 
  but ok,.. nm10:13.01 
  tnx for the answers10:13.12 
kens2 It does not strip them out10:13.14 
  It creates a totally new PDF file10:13.25 
  Robbes : ping12:12.47 
  chrisl ping12:17.33 
chrisl kens2: pong12:17.55 
kens2 chrisl could you try the file and command in bug 694500 pleae ?12:18.21 
  I've been unable to reproduce it, but we've seen differences in our Linuxes before12:18.50 
chrisl Is that the same image interpolation code that we use for rendering?12:19.42 
kens2 I expect it is, yes12:19.54 
  I believe at this point it *is* rendering12:20.12 
chrisl Yes, I meant "normal" rendering, rather than pdfwrite fallback rendering12:20.39 
kens2 THey are the same, really.12:20.51 
  the image just ends up somewhere different12:21.04 
  I have suggested they try the latest source, but as you can see, no reply yet12:21.20 
chrisl Remember there was a bunch of seg faults came up in the light of the efficiency improvements Robin implemented12:21.28 
kens2 Hmm, well I'll give them a couple of days to respond and then close it if they don't say anything12:21.57 
chrisl kens2: debug exe works fine for me12:23.31 
kens2 Good enough, then I'll just give them some time to respond, thanks12:23.50 
chrisl Release binary works, too12:24.54 
Robbes tnx ken, for pointing out that PDFA-2 can be 1.4 as version12:25.50 
kens2 AH Robbes, I wanted to be sure you;d seen the thread. Thanks for confirming12:26.21 
Robbes btw, do you know if ghostscript does anything with JPEG2000 compression?12:27.11 
kens2 We decompress it, we do not apply it12:27.22 
  JPEG2000 compression is patent encumebred, and cannot be released under GPL12:27.38 
Robbes oke12:27.43 
kens2 That is, the code can be releases, but you need a licence to use it.....12:28.15 
chrisl kens2: 9.06 exe seg faults...... so I would suggest whatever it was has been fixed12:28.32 
kens2 chrisl ah, that's interesting. I'll still give them some time to try it themselves and then close it if I don't hear.12:34.49 
kens2 coffees12:35.04 
vtorri tor7, hey13:07.53 
henrys holiday isn't it?13:19.46 
kens2 where is it holiday ?13:20.03 
henrys oh I though it was a bank holiday13:20.21 
kens2 Not here13:20.26 
henrys thought13:20.27 
kens2 There's a Scottish one today13:21.10 
  Hmm, lots of 'ceonnection timed out' error son cluster13:22.15 
henrys I have a UK holiday calendar template on Google and it has it as a "UK" holiday13:23.17 
kens2 Hmm, well we don't take the UK ones any more than the US ones anyway13:23.39 
  But I think its only in Scotland today anyway13:24.15 
  Of course Scotland is still part of the UK13:25.06 
henrys hi marcosw I gave the 801 customer bug back to you but if you want me to talk to them let me know.15:11.06 
  oops missed hm15:13.13 
  mvrhel_laptop: just to verify my understanding if I want to see what will roundtrip I should use the output profile (the one with the extra blue plane in this case) as the input and srgb as the output. Do I have the right? Is there more to it? 15:15.47 
mvrhel_laptop henrys: that is it15:17.39 
henrys also I'm booking chicago soon, did you decide?15:19.05 
mvrhel_laptop henrys: brb15:19.52 
  henrys: sorry I misunderstood your earlier question15:32.38 
  for roundtripping15:32.46 
  but yes. you would first start with an RGB value. Do the conversion from sRGB to CMYK+B. Then take the CMYK+B value and do conversion back to sRGB15:35.06 
henrys yes that is basically what I did - there seems to be a constant factor pushing the values up in, there I assume that is the white point15:36.14 
mvrhel_laptop henrys: so with respect to chicago, I am fine either way. If you are want to do the whole show that is fine but I am equally fine with doing the tail end if you would like. It really is not a problem for me15:36.41 
  henrys: try doing absolute colorimetry as the rendering intent15:37.02 
  or colorimetric15:37.11 
  there may be some funny business going on with the perceptual rendering intents15:37.45 
henrys mvrhel_laptop: Okay I'll do the entire show.15:38.15 
mvrhel_laptop henrys: ok. sounds good. I am going to change my ticket today then15:38.48 
  henrys: I have to run my son off to computer camp 15:39.19 
henrys mvrhel_laptop: okay that should be easy enough to fix in my script.15:39.21 
mvrhel_laptop and then daughter off to soccer15:39.33 
henrys okay15:39.39 
mvrhel_laptop I will be back in a bit15:39.44 
henrys marcosw:you around?15:49.09 
  see the logs about 80115:49.22 
rayjj peeves is back up. We had no power last night from a few minutes past 1015:52.00 
  seems to have come up quickly and clean15:52.16 
henrys rayjj:wow quite an outage for your area.15:52.47 
marcosw henrys: I am around and will look at the logs16:00.26 
kens Night all16:46.39 
marcosw_ henrys: I just re-read your comments on bug 694435 and I think it would be better if you emailed the customer directly. They are going to reply and that will require a follow-up discussion and I'll just end up forwarding emails between you and them.20:45.41 
henrys okay20:46.00 
mvrhel_laptop bbiaw22:01.25
