Description Frank Juanito 2006-09-11 14:07:29 UTC

Under Windows 2000, if you create a Postscript file from the pdf at
http://www.socialsecurity.gov/online/ss-5.pdf file and then feed it to
Ghostscript 8.54 with the following command, gs fails on page 5

gs -q -dSAFER -dNOPAUSE -dNOCIE -sDEVICE=nullpage -sOutputFile=/dev/null
./ss-5.ps  -c quit

However, when I send the file directly to a printer (such as the Dell 5200), all
the pages print.

The Postscript file generated from the pdf is available at
https://www-s2.library.uiuc.edu/lp/download/ss-5.ps.gz

Confirmed in HEAD. 
This li likely to be the case of excessive memory allocation in pattern
processing.
