Now, after the upgrade I have also the 900 MB print job files. I have looked into the file and the pages are uncompressed, hex-encoded 3x8-bit color bitmaps, the least efficient way to store images in a file. For me the file prints, with updated version even on the selected printer, but page selection does not work and it takes around 15 minutes until the first sheet (double-sided => 2 pages) comes out.
The real bug here is the inefficient way of Flash creating print jobs, even straight sending of the job to a PostScript printer without filters and CUPS takes ages. I have tried it and it took at least five minutes for the first sheet (double-sided => 2 pages) to come out. Second sheet is another five minutes and third another two minutes. My Ghostscript version is the same as yours, 8.70.dfsg.1-0ubuntu3. My box has 4G RAM and 5G swap. Your crashes of Ghostscript can be due to missing resources (RAM, disk space). The bug is in the Flash Player upstream. -- print from web-based flash application fails https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/598940 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
