Description punknroll 2013-11-06 07:29:21 UTC 
I get a segmentation fault using this command:

gs -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -dCompatibilityLevel=1.4 -dPDFSETTINGS=/ebook -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -sOutputFile=test.pdf seg1.pdf

The segementation fault disappears when I add -dNOTRANSPARENCY but then the images (which were PNG-files) look ugly.

Thanx for help.

I just found out that

-dDownsampleColorImages=true \

causes the problem.

This commit : 1cb2458772321dc86117cb45b5b28a1423ccf9b7 fixes the problem for me but I'm a little concerned that it is simply masking a deeper problem. If you still get the same result with other files please reopen the bug and attach a new failing file.
