A PDF source was fed into gs using this command: $ gs -q -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -sDEVICE=tiffg3 -r204x196 -sPAPERSIZE=a4 -dFIXEDMEDIA -sOutputFile=noisy.tiff "$pdf_src" That command is for producing a FAX image from a PDF. The source PDF contains annotations. A proper interactive PDF tool shows a note icon wherever an annotation is anchored. The icon’s purpose is to designate a position where the note applies and to give users a way to trigger the metadata to display. It makes no sense to render an icon of a note onto a raster conversion of a PDF. The tiffg3 cannot support annotation metadata. But in the above example, noisy.tiff shows those note icons obviously with no way to access the content of the notes. So the icons should be absent from the output. -- System Information: Debian Release: 12.12 APT prefers oldstable-updates APT policy: (990, 'oldstable-updates'), (990, 'oldstable-security'), (990, 'stable'), (990, 'oldstable'), (500, 'oldoldstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 5.10.0-28-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU threads) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages ghostscript depends on: ii libc6 2.36-9+deb12u13 ii libgs10 10.0.0~dfsg-11+deb12u8 ghostscript recommends no packages. ghostscript suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
