Subject: gs-gpl: Displays Courier Font in wrong size

Date: Thu, 26 Aug 2004 11:04:27 +0200

Package: gs-gpl
Version: 8.01-5
Severity: normal

This bug also occurs in the packages that are in the Cc, gs-afpl and xpdf.

When viewing the file http://dust.ess.uci.edu/hire/sdn_grd_02_adv.pdf,
the Courier fonts are displayed in a greater size than the other
letters (looks like 12 compared to 10). You can get an impression of
how it should look like if you use acroread, or the woody versions of
gs and xpdf.
