Looks like this is this Ghostscript upstream bug: http://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=690025
As a workaround, install the openprinting-ppds-extra package, and then switch to the appropriate PPD from that package. Or edit your PPD file (in /etc/cups/ppd) replacing *cupsFilter: "application/vnd.cups-postscript 0 foomatic-rip" by *cupsFilter: "application/vnd.cups-postscript 100 foomatic-rip" *cupsFilter: "application/vnd.cups-pdf 0 foomatic-rip" and restart CUPS with "sudo /etc/init.d/cups restart" Do you get correct printout. ** Changed in: ghostscript (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: cups => ghostscript ** Also affects: gs-gpl via http://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=690025 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- pdf printing leads to blocks in text https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/348427 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
