Bug description:
Hi,
I just noticed that for several days my cupspdf printer driver
(generating PDF files in the home directory as a special printer)
generated broken PDF files when printing from firefox to cupspdf.
Debugging and breaking it down into its processing steps showed that
firefox itself generates a PDF files and sends it to the cupspdf
printer, which then runs something like (filenames replaced for
debugging tests)
pdftops -level2 -origpagesizes x.pdf y.ps
/usr/lib/cups/filter/pstops 619 hadmut test 1 finishings=3 < y.ps >
z.ps
/usr/bin/gs -q -dCompatibilityLevel=1.4 -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -dSAFER -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -sOutputFile=a.pdf -dAutoRotatePages=/PageByPage -dAutoFilterColorImages=false -dColorImageFilter=/FlateEncode -dPDFSETTINGS=/prepress -c .setpdfwrite -f z.ps
The first and the second step work, the generated postscript file (y.ps in this example) is correct (i.e. ghostview shows it correctly, I did not check it's internals).
But then gs generates a broken pdf.
Just try a
/usr/bin/gs -q -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -dSAFER -sDEVICE=pdfwrite
-sOutputFile=a.pdf -f z.ps
with the attached z.ps as an example. I'll attach both z.ps and
a.pdf.
