Package: gs Version: 8.01-5 Severity: normal
The file at http://kochanski.org/tmp/bug.pdf was created by a recent binary of PDFCreator (running on Windows 98) (http://sourceforge.net/projects/pdfcreator/). It displays on xpdf on a current Debian Linux (testing branch), but gs (and ggv and gv and ps2pdf) fail to process it. Either the file is correct, in which case there is a bug in gs, or the file is not good ps, in which case this should be a wishlist item for better error messages. The file has embedded fonts: $ pdffonts bug.pdf name type emb sub uni object ID ------------------------------------ ------------ --- --- --- --------- Courier Type 1 no no no 8 0 Times-Roman Type 1 no no no 7 0 LYBKVP+MSTT31a95e8d72tS00 TrueType yes yes no 10 0 $ gs complains rather noisily, but not in a way calculated to be very informative: $ gs bug.pdf ESP Ghostscript 7.07 (2003-07-12) Copyright 2003 artofcode LLC and Easy Software Products, all rights reserved.
