Package: gs-esp
Version: 8.15.3.dfsg.1-1
Severity: normal

When using gs-esp, the file available at:
http://foia.state.gov/FORMS/Passport/ds0082.pdf
(US Dept of State Passport application renewal form)
renders, but does not print correctly when viewed in gv,xpdf or kpdf.  I
traced the bug to ESP Ghostscript, which returns the following error
when processing page 2:

The same file processed with gs-gpl returns the following message on
page 2:
[begin quote]
Substituting .notdef for space in the font BKNKHM+Arial-BoldItalicMT
[end quote]
but does not terminate on an unrecoverable error.

Also, if I am using a viewer (gv, xpdf, kpdf) and press "print", if the 
alternative "gs" is set to gs-gpl, all 6 pages of the file will print, if it's 
set to, gs-esp only page 1 will print.
