I have a tiny shell script that I use to convert abiword documents to pdf
format and then open the new file using xpdf:
=============
#!/bin/sh
abiword --print /tmp/$1.ps $1.abw
ps2pdf /tmp/$1.ps $1.pdf
xpdf $1.pdfing box in Type 3 glyph
=============
Ever since upgrading my ports I am getting strange errors when xpdf opens
a file thus created:
Error: Bad bounding box in Type 3 glyph
Error: Bad bounding box in Type 3 glyph
Error: Bad bounding box in Type 3 glyph
Error: Bad bounding box in Type 3 glyph
Error: Bad bounding box in Type 3 glyph
Error: Bad bounding box in Type 3 glyph
Error: Bad bounding box in Type 3 glyph
Error: Bad bounding box in Type 3 glyph
Error: Bad bounding box in Type 3 glyph
Error: Bad bounding box in Type 3 glyph
Error: Bad bounding box in Type 3 glyph
Error: Bad bounding box in Type 3 glyph
The document looks ok to my eyes.  I rummaged around the net and I have
found a similar problem and it seems it is a ghostscript issue.  Indeed, I
did change around my ghostscript ports (ghostscript-afpl to
ghostscript-gnu) because that is what portmanager suggested.  Should I try
to go back?  Comments?  Running 5.4 stable here.
