DIfferent results on different machines #243

Open Grigor355 opened 2 years ago

PDF2Image produces different results on different machines. Both machines show the same result for the following pdffonts commands

Q1. Why are the first and last fonts not displayed for substituion? Q2. One of machines is Ubuntu 18.04 with poppler-utils version 0.62.0 , the other is Debian Buster with poppler-utils version 0.72.0 (both are the latest versions). Can this be the reason?

pdf2image version on both - 1.16.0

I think this is because of poppler-utils binary being different in different machines, I got completely bizare results in different systems

This one in AMI linux test1

And this one in Ubuntu 18.04 WSL test2

I guess this should be reported to poppler-utils repo

Could this be caused by missing fonts on the AL machine? I seem to recall there were some missing fonts. What's the output of pdffonts?
