Description Werner Lemberg 2006-11-06 02:54:29 UTC

Using the file luximr.ttf (Luxi Mono Regular Version 1.2)
which is part of many X11 distributions, the pdfwrite device
fails with /invalidfont for this simple input file:

(luximr.ttf) (r) file .loadfont
100 100 moveto
/LuxiMono 400 selectfont
/o glyphshow
stroke

I used this command line:
  gs -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -sOutputFile=foo.pdf -f foo.ps

If necessary, I can upload this font.

Please upload your font.

Comment 2 Werner Lemberg 2006-11-06 15:58:38 UTC

Note that the current SVN repository works fine with my test case.
Shall I still upload?

Dear Werner Lemberg,

If you agree to go with current HEAD or wait for the next release, then close 
the bug. If you want us to work on this problem, we'll need the font. But in 
the second case we'll patch 8.54 for Artifex customers only. For non-customers 
the result will again be closing with 'worksforme'.

I'm closing it :-)
