Hi Oliver, The problem is probably not ghostscript, current gropdf moans about "too many glyphs" when it can't allocate all used to 8 bit code points. This too will be addressed in the next version of gropdf, which addresses problems of very large fonts with thousands of different glyphs. Cheers Deri
