2012-08-28 21:08:47 Till Kamppeter description I have just noticed a problem caused by the change on 3 Oct 2011, which prevents pdfopt from linearizing pdflatex-generated files at least under Ubuntu 12.04: How to reproduce the problem: ghostscript/9.05 is used by Ubuntu 12.04. Linearizing a pdflatex-generated file does not work here. For test, simply /usr/share/doc/texlive- doc/latex/curve/curve.pdf can be used with pdfopt: dreibh@lupo:/tmp$ pdfopt /usr/share/doc/texlive-doc/latex/curve/curve.pdf x.pdf **** Considering object with an invalid number 264 as null. **** Considering object with an invalid number 265 as null. **** Considering object with an invalid number 264 as null. **** Considering object with an invalid number 265 as null. dreibh@lupo:/tmp$ pdfinfo x.pdf Producer: ESP Ghostscript 815.03 CreationDate: Mon Feb 25 18:03:04 2008 ModDate: Mon Feb 25 18:03:04 2008 Tagged: no Pages: 26 Encrypted: no Page size: 595 x 842 pts (A4) File size: 184754 bytes Optimized: no ########### <<-- not linearized PDF version: 1.3 I have therefore reverted the change in pdf_base.ps: - 1 index 0 lt { - ( **** Considering object with a negative number as null.\n) pdfformaterror + 1 index dup 0 lt exch NumObjects ge or { + ( **** Considering object with an invalid number ) + 2 index 20 string cvs concatstrings + ( as null.\n) concatstrings pdfformaterror Now, pdfopt works as before: dreibh@lupo:/tmp$ pdfopt /usr/share/doc/texlive-pictures- doc/latex/curve/curve.pdf y.pdf dreibh@lupo:~/tmp$ pdfinfo y.pdf Producer: ESP Ghostscript 815.03 CreationDate: Mon Feb 25 18:03:04 2008 ModDate: Mon Feb 25 18:03:04 2008 Tagged: no Pages: 26 Encrypted: no Page size: 595 x 842 pts (A4) File size: 185577 bytes Optimized: yes ########### <<-- not linearized PDF version: 1.3 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: ghostscript 9.05~dfsg-0ubuntu4.1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-27.43-generic 3.2.21 Uname: Linux 3.2.0-27-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.0.1-0ubuntu11 Architecture: amd64 Date: Thu Aug 2 23:05:41 2012 InstallationMedia: Kubuntu 12.04 LTS "Precise Pangolin" - Release amd64 (20120423) Lpstat: device for Farblaser-TCP: socket://132.252.151.21:9100 device for HP-LaserJet-2420: socket://132.252.151.20:9100 device for HPLaserJet4050: socket://132.252.151.22:9100 device for HPLaserJet5MP: socket://172.31.255.128:9100 device for Knoll: lpd://192.168.200.144/ MachineType: LENOVO 4061W1N Papersize: a4 PccardctlIdent: Socket 0: no product info available PccardctlStatus: Socket 0: no card PpdFiles: Knoll: Fiery X3eTY 50_45C-KM PS Color Server 1.01eu Farblaser-TCP: Dell MFP Laser 3115cn v3015.103 PS HPLaserJet4050: HP LaserJet 4050 Series Postscript (recommended) HP-LaserJet-2420: HP LaserJet 2420 Postscript (recommended) HPLaserJet5MP: HP LaserJet 5MP Postscript (recommended) ProcEnviron: LANGUAGE= TERM=xterm PATH=(custom, user) LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-3.2.0-27-generic root=UUID=b0b8846c-fcfb-4cda-ba9c-600cb5ff36bf ro crashkernel=384M-2G:64M,2G-:128M quiet splash vt.handoff=7 SourcePackage: ghostscript UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) dmi.bios.date: 12/14/2011 dmi.bios.vendor: LENOVO dmi.bios.version: 6FET92WW (3.22 ) dmi.board.name: 4061W1N dmi.board.vendor: LENOVO dmi.board.version: Not Available dmi.chassis.asset.tag: No Asset Information dmi.chassis.type: 10 dmi.chassis.vendor: LENOVO dmi.chassis.version: Not Available dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnLENOVO:bvr6FET92WW(3.22):bd12/14/2011:svnLENOVO:pn4061W1N:pvrThinkPadW500:rvnLENOVO:rn4061W1N:rvrNotAvailable:cvnLENOVO:ct10:cvrNotAvailable: dmi.product.name: 4061W1N dmi.product.version: ThinkPad W500 dmi.sys.vendor: LENOVO I have just noticed a problem caused by the change on 3 Oct 2011, which prevents pdfopt from linearizing pdflatex-generated files at least under Ubuntu 12.04: [IMPACT] pdfopt does not work on any file generated by pdflatex.
