Description Marcos H. Woehrmann 2008-12-08 17:40:44 UTC
The attached PDF file renders as a blank page when converted with Ghostscript 8.54, 8.62, 8.63, or head 
(r9258); opening the file in Apple Preview or Acrobat 9.0 shows text (it's actually an image, but an image 
of text, so I'm calling it text).

The command line I'm using for testing:

  bin/gs -sDEVICE=tiff24nc -o test.tif ./Leitungsplan_011208i.pdf

This file has been greatly simplified from the original customer supplied test
file.  As such I do not feel it needs to be marked as private.

This bug is in managing of rectangles and bounding boxes in an
annotation. It should be quite easy to fix.
Comment 3 Alex Cherepanov 2008-12-20 23:50:13 UTC
Implement Algorithm 8.1 from PDF 1.6 Reference. Map /BBox of the appearance
stream transformed by /Matrix onto the annotation rectangle.

This patch has been committed as a rev. 9300.
