Synopsis
ghostscript bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
An updated ghostscript package that fixes two bugs is now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 5.
Description
The Ghostscript suite provides a PostScript(TM) interpreter, a set of C
procedures (the Ghostscript library, which implements the graphics capabilities
in the PostScript language), and an interpreter for PDF files. Ghostscript
translates PostScript code into many common, bitmapped formats, especially
formats understood by most printers and displays. This enables users to display
PostScript files and print them on non-PostScript printers.
This update fixes the following bugs:
- Prior to this update, the page orientation was incorrect when pages in
landscape orientation were converted to the PXL raster format. This update
matches landscape page sizes as well as portrait page sizes, and sets the
orientation parameter correctly when a match is found. (BZ#734764)
- Prior to this update, certain input files containing CID Type2 fonts were
rendered with incorrect character spacing. This update modifies the code so that
all input files with CID Type2 fonts are rendered correctly. (BZ#734767)
Users are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which fixes these bugs.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant
to your system have been applied.
This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red
Hat Network to apply this update are available at
