Use xpdf to view PDF files in Ubuntu to solve Garbled text and other problems

In Ubuntu, many of my friends may have encountered garbled characters in viewing PDF files. The solution was very simple at that time, you only need to install the xpdf-chinese-simplifiedxpdf-chinese-traditional software package on the terminal. This can basically solve the garbled problem that occurs when you use Evince to view PDF files. But now we have encountered a very strange problem. It is not garbled, but garbled. Please refer to: a Python tutorial PD has been downloaded online.

But now we have encountered a very strange problem. It is not garbled, but garbled.

See:

I downloaded a PDF document about the Python tutorial online, but it was dumpfounded after I opened it with Evince.

This is not garbled, because I can also see a few Chinese characters, or traditional Chinese characters. What's going on?

I confirmed that I installed xpdf-chinese-simplified xpdf-chinese-traditional on Ubuntu. There is no problem in most PDF documents. Today, we have encountered a difficult problem.

Think about it. Try another PDF reader. Since the two software packages are called xpdf ***, is there an xpdf reader? Sure enough!

Run the following command on the terminal (or install the command in "Add/Delete ):

Sudo apt-get install xpdf

After installing xpdf, right-click it and open it with xpdf, Oh Yeah! There are no messy characters, and the beautiful traditional Chinese characters are displayed in front of you:

When reading this PDF document, I think xpdf is really good! It is not only lightweight, but also has complete reading functions, which is no different from Evince. The disadvantage is that it is not written using GTK +, and the interface is a bit out of place.

However, as a reader that can read this difficult PDF document, I still leave it behind. Haha!
