  pdftops loses grid lines

Bug description:
  We discovered that cups in lucid does not correctly print certain PDFs
  when printing from the command line with lpr or as a shared printer
  from preview in OS X. The same file prints correctly with cups on
  hardy. This issue occurs with a variety of different printers.

  I tracked down the problem to /usr/bin/pdftops by running the pdf
  through the filters that cups does according to the log.
  /usr/bin/pdftops is called by the cpdftocps filter.

  This pdftops is installed from poppler-utils:
  $dpkg-query -S /usr/bin/pdftops 
  poppler-utils: /usr/bin/pdftops 

  After running the pdf through each step of the filter, I opened it
  with evince. After running through pdftops, evince showed exactly what
  I see when I print the file.

  Interestingly, if I print from evince or acroread, all the lines are
  printed correctly. I think they are converting the file to postscript
  themselves before sending it to cups.

  I will attach the file that shows this behavior.

  The pdftops provided by the cups package does not exhibit this problem.
  $ dpkg-query -S /usr/lib/cups/filter/pdftops
  cups: /usr/lib/cups/filter/pdftops
