Description Jack Moffitt 2003-01-14 22:23:12 UTC 
Originally reported by: jackiem@users.sourceforge.net
When cell.PS is rendered by Ghostscript (any version,
including CVS HEAD) it fails with /rangecheck in
--get-- when the RedHat 8 fonts are used, but works
fine if the Ghostscript distributed fonts are used.

Test file available on casper.  I've also put a copy of
the RedHat 8 fonts on casper with this test file.

The document is bad.

It defines and uses a procedure named 'ishow'.
The procedure assumes that FontBBox is an executive array.
It is so with Ghostscript fonts, but it is a literal array in RH8 
font n022023l.pfb . With the RH8 font the procedure creates a 
1-element array and tries to get the 2nd element from it.

The bug should be addressed to developers of 'idraw' software.
