Public bug reported:

Bug originally reported by Sven Meier as a comment on bug 419143,
created a new bug report here as it is a different problem and we want
to issue an SRU for Oneiric.

Convert the attached PDF file to PostScript with

pdf2ps REC10889-2-printout.pdf

Then try to display the resulting file with

gs REC10889-2-printout.ps

Output is as follows:

----------
till@till:~/ghostscript/testfiles$ gs REC10889-2-printout.ps

GS produces a blank page at first and then a page with the text:

This happens with Ghostscript 9,04 on Ubuntu Oneiric (11.10).
