#33822: ghostscript @9.05_0 missing characters in loaded fonts ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- Reporter: rosgen@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.0.4 Keywords: | Port: ghostscript ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- Since upgrading ghostscript to @9.05_0 certain characters in postscript and pdf files are not displayed. Reverting to @9.04_1 fixes the problem. This is on a system running 10.6.8. Potentially relevant ports installed are: freetype @2.4.9_1+universal fontconfig @2.9.0_1+universal The problem occurs on the attached pdf file (and on other files). The text in the left margin is missing several characters. I've attached two screenshots: the behaviour in 0.94_1.png is the correct behaviour displayed by ghostscript @9.04_1, while the behaviour shown in 0.95_0.png is what ghostscript @9.05_0 displays. Other pdf viewers agree with the output of @9.04_1. The console output of @9.05_0 on this file is: {{{ GPL Ghostscript 9.05 (2012-02-08) Copyright (C) 2010 Artifex Software, Inc. All rights reserved.

The only differences are in the numbers displayed regarding the loaded font. It seems like the font is either corrupt or being loaded incorrectly. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/33822> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
