Common denominator for what? I don't think Ghostscript has any "default page layout to use when fed weakly expressed input" nor just "default font size to use when lacking from input". Sounds like those are what you are seeking a common denominator for. If Iceweasel needs Ghostscript to compose its Postscript/PDF, then I guess it was supposed to at least suggest it. Perhaps try remove ghostscript and libgs9 and see if Iceweasel can still produce (broken) PDF. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
