After updating to KDE Applications 16.12 in Maui 2.1, okular has a major problem with pdf files.
The problem is that many pages of whatever pdf file I open with okular are not correctly visualized. In attachment there is a pdf file and a screenshoot to show the problem I have.
Has some of you the same problem? How to fix it?
Thanks for helping.

Can't help you with Okular sorry (i dislike it]. Instead i use Master PDF Editor; https://code-industry.net/free-pdf-editor/

PS - I run it in FireJail, isolated from the net, for safety/privacy.

Master PDF looks a good alternative, I'll try it.
Thank you.

I can't reproduce the issue here with Okular 1.0.0 from KDE Applications 16.12 with PDF Backend 0.65

I fear it could be a visual glitch caused by the graphics driver. Try switching off the desktop effects (Alt+Shift+F12 to toggle effects on/off) and see if it helps.

No change by switching off desktop effects....

I have a GeForce GTX 750 Ti with NVIDIA Driver Version 367.57 (recommended drivers) in a dual monitor.

Can you for testing purposes switch to the free software (nouveau) driver again and see if it fixes the issue.
