Package: a2ps Version: 1:4.13b.dfsg.1-1 Severity: normal fixps replaces all CRLF EOLs (e.g. introduced by magicfilter) with LFLF combinations, thus producing empty lines (that according to its manpage fixps should remove). The resulting document has then several spurious 'g' letters showing up in gv as well as in print.
When the empty lines are removed (i.e. using sed '/$^/d' ), the g's also disappear. As an example, we have prepared some documents at http://korpus.juls.savba.sk/~mirol/fixfixps/. The original OO.o document and its PDF export are called orig.{sxw,pdf}. ptp.ps is the pdf converted using pdftops. Then the .mf are files that went through magicfilter (that created the CRLF EOLs), .fix those with fixps applied and .sed files with the empty lines removed. The files orig.pdf.mf.fix.ps and ptp.mf.fix.ps are the only showing the g-letters, mostly visible at the dotted lines. All other files are OK. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.21.5 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages a2ps depends on: ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libpaper1 1.1.21 Library for handling paper charact -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
