[cups.bugs] [LOW] STR #2138: pdftops creates invalid PS from particular PDF

[Michael Sweet]

[STR Closed w/o Resolution]

This is not a problem with pdftops, but with ESP Ghostscript and the PDF
file in question.

The embedded font in the PDF file does not contain a space glyph. The
default "missing character" glyph name in ESP Ghostscript is "space"
instead of ".notdef".  Ghostscript is throwing an error because it can't
find a space character in the embedded font.

espgsMissingChar is defined in gs_init.ps; you can patch it to use
..notdef, however keep in mind that this will lead to some PDF files
printing with boxes for missing characters instead of spaces...
