Description Ruediger Bahr 2009-12-01 01:26:50 UTC

I have PostScript files which I want to convert to PDF format. Special files 
let gswin32c crash or run infinitely.
I run the conversion with following command line:

C:\temp>"c:\Program Files\gs\gs8.70\bin\gswin32c.exe" -q -dSAFER -dNOPAUSE -dBAT
CH -sDEVICE#pdfwrite -sOutputFile#"C:\temp\sk100ur\TJ-TestJournal-sk1u00r8@ww300
-633930131902134049.xml.1.pdf" -dCompatibilityLevel#1.5  -dMaxSubsetPct=100 -dEm
bedAllFonts=true -dSubsetFonts=true -dCompatibilityLevel#1.5 -dPDFSETTINGS=/prep
ress  -r600 -c .setpdfwrite -f"C:\temp\sk100ur\TJ-TestJournal-sk1u00r8@ww300-633
930131902134049.xml.ps"
%%[ ProductName: GPL Ghostscript ]%%
%%[Page: 1]%%

Ghostscript crashes with a pop-up telling: The instruction at "0x101ce534" 
referenced memory at "0x2f303037". The memory could not be read.

The PostScript files which cause PDF conversion problems I can make available 
for a reproduction of the problem. Let me know how I can make them available.

Thanks
Rüdiger

Created attachment 5727 [details]
633930131902134049.xml.ps">TJ-TestJournal-sk1u00r8@ww300-633930131902134049.xml.ps

The PostScript File lets the actual version of gswin32c crash.
Please mark the file as private and to be used at artifex.com only.

The file works for me on Ghostscript v. 9.00 and the current development version.
Please upgrade.
