Hi,

This is fixed in current recoll code. The current handler is fully
compatible with recoll 1.24:

https://opensourceprojects.eu/p/recoll1/code/ci/2f75550348a06bfd354df241b3ea0f61a45c102c/tree/src/filters/rclps

The fixed handler uses ps2pdf and pdftotext. The output is much better
than ps2ascii, and ps2pdf extracts some metadata from the postscript
comments (e.g.: %%Title:)
