Bug description:
PDF file data fail to rendering to raster data.
We were reported a bug from our printer users:
I print file use papersize A5 (Ubuntu 16.04.1(x64),Ghostscript 9.18) is Okay.
But, after I update (apt-get upgrade) to Ubuntu 16.04.5(x64),Ghostscript
9.25, I print the same file with the same driver there is an error reports:
"Filter Error"
I figure out that all the papersize with define "LeadingEdge" can't print
success after update.
(with "LeadingEdge":A5, Statement, A4(without "LeadingEdge") is print Okay).
I view the "CUPS Error Log",there is an error reports when print job fails:
"Ghostscript command line: /usr/bin/gs -dQUIET -dPARANOIDSAFER -dNOPAUSE
-dBATCH -dNOINTERPOLATE -sDEVICE=cups -sstdout=%stderr -sOutputFile=%stdout

Unrecoverable error: undefined in .putdeviceprops"
Ubuntu 18.04(x64), Ghostscript 9.22 also have the same problem.

---------------------------------------------------
Our printer driver users(also users of Ubuntu 16.04) can't do their normal
print jobs.
So, we are eagerly hopping that you can offer us a patch(Ubuntu 16.04) to fix
this bug?
