Description Raph Levien 2005-12-21 10:18:57 UTC 
I have a new problem with GS's pdfwrite device. The EPS contains a CID Font
which becomes defect in the PDF. Please have a look at this.

Comment 3 leonardo 2005-12-21 15:55:01 UTC 
I can observe 2 problems :
1. Acrobat 7 reports an invalid FontBBox.
2. Font size appears wrong when PDF is generated with gs8.51, but it is correct 
when generating with gs8.52
