Created attachment 6429 [details] Sample PDF I create PDFs using ZendFrameworks PDF-library. They display fine in Acrobat, Adobe Reader and Preview on OS X but they have a really broken glyph spacing when displayed or converted using ghostscript. This error does not happen with ghostscript 8.61 but with 8.71 it happens on mac os x (ghostscript build from macports) and on Ubuntu 10.4 (standard package). How do reproduce (assuming X11-enabled GS): $ gs 23b4a418b6c1a48735154adcb874fa02.pdf

This bug has been fixed by the activation of FreeType font renderer in the rev. 11071. r11071 | chrisl | 2010-04-14 12:25:11 -0400 (Wed, 14 Apr 2010) | 2 lines Reverse the previous build options for Freetype integration: now --disable-freetype for configure on Unix type systems or pass FT_BRIDGE=0 to nmake on Windows if you do not want to integrate Freetype.
