Title:
ghostscript fails to correctly substitute cidf fonts
Status in poppler-data package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
I reported this bug first with ghostscript
(http://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=695874), but it is
apparently a packaging issue.
The general issue is that when there is a CIDF font in a .pdf that is
not embedded in the document, ghostscript will stop processing the
file at that font (see the file attached to the ghostscript bug). The
packaging issue is that CIDF fonts that are not on the system are in
the default Ubuntu cidfmap file.
System info is:
$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 14.10
Release: 14.10
Codename: utopic
$ ghostscript --version
9.14
