What versions of Qt & poppler did you use?

With poppler, the Splash backend is used by TeXworks. Can you determine 
if poppler was built to include that backend (it should be by default, 
unless it is configured with --disable-splash-output).

I suppose the testcases (testcases/base14-fonts.pdf and 
testcases/poppler-data.pdf and testcases/sync.pdf) look similar?

Can you send me a screenshot (preferably of testcases/sync.pdf)?

Is there any difference if you build in debug mode (cmake 
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ..)?

Regards,
Stefan
