Large maps cannot be displayed; from https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/991138

Test PDF at: http://www.sloplanning.org/gis/mapimagepdf/RuralCDMaps/Rural%20South%20County%20CD.pdf

The PDF downloads VERY slowly (more than 2 minutes on a fast connection) in Firefox, but only seconds in Chrome or IE. When the PDF is rendered, most of the graphic elements within the PDF are missing; comparing the PDF image between FF and Chrome is stark. A good test is to wait through the long download in FF, then press the 'download' button and compare the resulting image displays. The 'downloaded' version has the graphics that are missing from the in-browser display.

At the moment we're stuck telling our clientele to not use FF. :(

In my testing, this is occurring in v27.0.1 of FF on Windows 7; I'm not certain of all the configurations for our clientele where this is also occurring.

Thanks, Steve

I the reporter am currently on beta using Windows 7 and can reproduce the same issue.

The PDF's I have created work in all browsers except in the Firefox Preview PDF option where some outline boundaries and special characters are displayed and others aren't. This may also be related to a memory issue but my maps are nowhere near the size as the PDF listed above. I have noticed the issue for a few months across many of my maps but didn't see it as a problem since saving the PDF from the browser corrects any of the issues. However other users have contacted me and asked about functionality.
Here's a sample map: https://apps.health.state.mn.us/mndata/documents/10180/57994/2009_Childhood_Lead_Testing.pdf

Both of the mentioned documents render fine for me in development versions of Firefox and pdf.js, and look identical to what evince shows. So whatever the problem was, it must have been fixed at some point.

Thanks for the bug reports.
