Package: texlive-base
Version: 2016.20170123-5
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
The following LaTeX file:
\documentclass[12pt,a4paper]{article}
\font\testing=cmssbx17 scaled 2500
\font\testingb=cmssbx17 scaled 1500
\font\testingt=cmss17 scaled 800
\begin{document}
\testing{first{\testingb{second}}third}\\
\testingt{fourth}
\end{document}
was working correctly with Debian wheezy LTS, for DVI, PS (via dvips)
and PDF (via pdflatex):
latex demo.tex && dvips demo.dvi -o demo.ps && pdflatex demo.tex
xdvi demo.dvi; gv demo.ps; gv demo.pdf
With jessie and stretch, the problem is a corrupted PS file which does
not contain the word "first" completely, and in addition with a
wrong font (looking like courier).
Maybe the psfonts.map file is wrong?
Thank you to look into this.
