[cups.bugs] [MOD] STR #2626: pstops

[STR New]

The output created by pstops for numbered-up printing does not work for
PostScript generated by the paps text-to-PostScript tool.

paps output attached, altered so that cupstestdsc finds no problems with
it.  I've also attached the output I'm getting from pstops, and a patch
file representing the changes that pstops made.

Running the pstops filter on its own like this:

/usr/lib/cups/filter/pstops 1 tim '' 1 'number-up=4 number-up-layout=lrtb
orientation-requested=4' paps.ps > ps.ps

gives a ps.ps that ghostscript does not like:

$ gs ps.ps
