This is not entirely true, they also think it's pure luck that it's printed with the alternate pstops filter:
h.blischke: The generated PostScript file does by no means conform to the DSC. As the pstops filter (any instance of any CUPS version) depends on the input to be DSC conforming, successful printing is a matter of chance (the alternate pstops filter successfully handles the file, but I think it is pure luck). mike: We cannot support non-conforming files that advertise that they are conforming. The Xfig software should be patched upstream to fix the output, either by not using %!PS-Adobe-M.n or by correcting the DSC problems... -- cupsys prints empty pages https://launchpad.net/bugs/51432 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
