Description Reiner Saalfrank 2008-04-07 06:50:42 UTC

Hi, 
we are using GhostScript in order to convert pdf to eps using device epswrite.
When using GhostScript version > 8.60 sometimes images are corrupted.
All tested GhostScript versions lower than 8.61 (8.60, 8.54) works correct.

This could be seen, when GhostScript runs in Windows XP (gs 8.61) or UNIX-
Environments IBM AIX (gs 8.62).

GhostScript was called in Windows like:
c:/programme/gs/gs8.61/bin/gswin32c -sDEVICE#epswrite "-
IC:\Programme\gs\gs8.61" -sOutputFile#datev.eps datev.pdf 

If I use ps2write as device, the output seems to be correct.

I will attach a file datev.pdf which contains a "datev-logo" showing the 
problem.

Kind Regards,
Reiner
