Description Marcos H. Woehrmann 2010-08-04 23:16:10 UTC 
I've been going through the thousands of differences caused by r11549 and so far have come across one file which appears to be a regression.  See the attached 11548.png and 11549.png files.

The command lines used:

  bin/gs -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -o test.pdf -r300 ./Bug687044.ps
  bin/gs -sDEVICE=ppmraw -o test.ppm -r300 ./test.pdf

Actually this file has always been wrong. By some weird co-incidence Ghostscript was previously able to produce the expected result, but Acrobat (our reference) always missed the offending text.

This is believed to be another manifestation of type 3 font problems with pdfwrite, and we already have an open report for this (which already includes this file).
