rayjj mvrhel: I don't know if you saw the logs -- I didn't want to dump on you, but the color issues with Altona_Technical_v20_x4.pdf are quite strange. Note I am only reporting rather obvious differences (not trivial) and not ones where Adobe has quite differennt output depending on the Simulation Profile.00:45.07 
  mvrhel: but can we use the "OutputIntent" in the PDF file. (that just occurred to me and I will look at the GS9_Color_Management doc to see if I can find it). ISTR that was an embedded Output Device ICC profile that Adobe seems to use by default00:46.46 
  my 10th science fair is now behind me (as an advisor) 3 with my niece and nephews and 7 with my own kids.00:48.16 
mvrhel rayjj: yes we can use the output profile01:06.37 
  I mean the profile in the output intent01:06.46 
  -dUsePDFX3Profile01:08.02 
  darn found another gsview bug01:08.40 
mvrhel_laptop hmm so when I have an epub document open with gsview, I am getting an access violation deep in the innards of mupdf. If I do a very rapid scroll of the pages and I have one thread that is just rendering a display list while another is creating a display list then bad things happen. The mutex lock is set up for the display list creation but my understanding is that it is not needed for the...05:59.46 
  ...display list rendering. This problem is not happening with PDF source files05:59.47 
  I will share the call stacks of the two threads tomorrow with you Robin (for the logs)06:00.10 
  maybe you will see something obvious06:00.25 
tor8 Robin_Watts: about michael's problems with epub, where doc->page_h is 009:35.31 
  sounds like the threading may be accessing count_pages before the actual layout pass has completed09:35.59 
  calling fz_count_pages from more than one thread is not safe with epub (since that call may trigger a layout)09:36.29 
Robin_Watts tor8: Ah.10:38.56 
tor8 Robin_Watts: mvrhel migh get around it by manually calling fz_layout_document and waiting for completion before doing anything else10:39.39 
mvrhel_laptop Robin_Watts: I just sent you and tor8 some sample call stackes15:40.12 
  stacks15:40.15 
  perhaps you will see something obvious15:40.25 
rayjj mvrhel_laptop: I avoided putting in another bug on Altona_Technical for page 15. I had thought that the colors were way off when going to the tiffsep device, but it was XnView not using a reasonable mapping from CMYK to the screen (RGB). Looking at our output with Photoshop says we are "spot on"15:59.02 
mvrhel_laptop nice15:59.40 
rayjj mvrhel_laptop: that means that the method of bug 695925 should be OK15:59.43 
  I was worried at first that we had another problem15:59.54 
mvrhel_laptop we don't need any more of those right now16:00.31 
Robin_Watts fredross-perry: Tor reckons the problem might be that fz_count_pages is being called before fz_layout_document.17:35.26 
  actually, it looks like fz_count_pages does an fz_ensure_layout, so I don't see how that can be a problem.17:37.48 
  fredross-perry: Can you examine variables at the point at which you get page_h == 0 ?17:41.29 
  What does doc->did_layout say?17:41.52 
fredross-perry give me a sec, I need to pull down tha latest code and rebuild. Hang on…17:42.04 
  Robin_Watts: briliant. calling fz_count_pages solve both problems, I can now open my epub, AND I don’t get crashing un subsequent re-searching.17:57.36 
Robin_Watts Excellent!18:01.48 
  In general, don't call the document directly :)18:02.05 
fredross-perry got it18:04.07 
  mac and linux installers for gsview updated to support (properly) epub.18:49.45 
Robin_Watts Evening mvrhel20:06.18 
mvrhel_laptop hi Robin_Watts 20:53.56 
  Just getting ready to update mupdf20:54.02 
  had to finish fixing one thing I was in the middle of to get better response with scaling during window resize20:54.25 
  this will take a few minutes as I have to convert projects over to VS 2013 and add a few minor path and precompile changes20:55.42 
  grrr git troubles20:57.51 
  you guys did not take out the platform/windows stuff from mupdf?21:01.40 
  Robin_Watts: ^^21:01.44 
  hmm my update did not work21:02.18 
  got to go pick up daughter at school 21:02.30 
  bbiaw21:02.32 
  I will get this tested later today Robin_Watts 21:02.44 
  apparently I mucked up my submodules somehow in gsview23:51.14 
Robin_Watts mvrhel_laptop: is it behaving OK now ?23:57.24 
mvrhel_laptop no :(23:57.32 
  maybe I should have you try to do the checkout23:57.40 
  I am trying to do a clean one23:57.44 
  and I can't seem to get the submodules to update23:58.01 
Robin_Watts Will just try.23:58.12 
mvrhel_laptop but I know its late there23:58.13 
  ok thanks23:58.17 
  I suspect I messed up something when I created them way back when23:58.36 
  however, I know that I did do an update about a month ago23:58.52 
  and that worked fine23:58.55 
  so I am not sure why it does not work now23:59.01
