Description Marcos H. Woehrmann 2008-11-13 14:42:37 UTC 
The customer reports and I've verified that the attached PDF file is not
correctly read by Ghostscript 8.63 nor head (r9219).  Specifically the text is
rendered as filled by gray with Ghostcript and with white and read by Adobe
Acrobat 8.0 and Apple Preview.

The command line I'm using for testing:

  bin/gs -sDEVICE=ppmraw -o test.ppm ./Sapph_c.pdf

This renders properly with the soft mask branch.
Comment 4 Michael Vrhel 2009-04-28 15:19:43 UTC 
This is fixed with the merge of the soft mask branch.
