I happened to find this issue reported as a GNU Ghostscript bug and
tried to fix it. But, I found there's no GS bug here. The bug is in
OO.o and the PDF file is incorrect.
The bug is still present in a recent version of OO.o. Attached is the
PDF produced by OO.o 2.2.0 on a Fedora 7 system. The following
command makes most text on page 2 dissapear (the command uses GS for
Windows, but there's nothing platform-specific here):
gswin32c -c "/NimbusRomNo9L-Medi findfont pop" -f attached.pdf
Bug details:
When OO.o embeds a Type 1 font, it trims the clear-text part
that follows the encrypted part and writes /Length3 as 0 in the
PDF FontFile stream. This would be correct if the trimmed part
would only contain 512 ASCII zeroes and a "cleartomark". However,
this particular font and many others (free or commercial)
conditionally bracket the whole font definition with "save"/
"restore" (to be languagelevel 1 friendly; the details are
beyond the scope of this report). The part trimmed by OO.o actually
contains "00...00 cleartomark {restore} if". The missed "restore"
produces the behaviour seen here; other errors (typecheck,
limitcheck, etc) or erratic behaviour are possible.
This particular invalidness affects only PDF interpreters that use
a full-blown PostScript interpreter to load Type 1 fonts. For this
reason, the PDF displays fine in Adobe Reader but not in Ghostscript.
I suspect (but cannot check) that a genuine Adobe PostScript LL3
interpreter containing a(n optional) PDF interpreter is affected too.
The fix:
Easy: write the whole Type 1 font data in the PDF (appropriately
setting /Length3 > 0), or, if you prefer, only trim the "trailer"
when it really consists of exactly 512 ASCII '0's followed by a
"cleartomark" (as the PDF Ref specifies for the /Length3 = 0 case).
PS: I suggest to change this report from "Enhancement" to "Defect". It
seems I cannot do this myself.
