I don't know the answer to that question. I just wanted to provide one breadcrumb into the upstream bug tracker. It's an unrelated issue, but one comment reads: Ken Sharp 2017-03-20 08:14:30 UTC (In reply to Ulrich Windl from comment #42) > Wouldn't the user benefit from some warning being emitted?

The PDF v1.6 spec has been out for 2 years, but ps2pdf is still stuck at v1.4. Is this because there is nothing more to gain in the v1.5 v1.6 specs in a blind ps-to-pdf converter? Even if we provide ps2pdf15 or ps2pdf16, both gs-esp 8 and gs-gpl 8 can't create PDF above v1.4. So it's meaningless to provide these files at this time.
