Please note also that I will not undo the buffered input workarounds in
Hardy or upstream, as buffered input is of advantage for the
performance.


** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: ghostscript
  
  There is a problem with printing secured PDFs from Abode Reader 8.1.1 to
  non PostScript printers. This problem is observed with Ubuntu Gutsy
  Gibbon (7.10), more specifically where the version of GhostScript on the
  machine is "8.61 pre-release". The CUPS error logs show "GPL Ghostscript
  SVN PRE-RELEASE 8.61: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1". This issue is
  mentioned in bug# 145772
  (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/acroread/+bug/145772) as
  well.
  
  Since the issue is not observed with the official stable release of
  Ghostscript 8.61 (http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/doc/GPL/gpl861.htm),
  that should be the one available at the Ubuntu Gutsy repository.
  
  TEST CASE:
  
  1. Take the PostScript file attached to this bug (first attachment) and
  let Ghostscript render it, passing the file in via standard input but
  without buffered reading:
  
- cat encrpdf.gs | gs -sDEVICE=x11 -
+ cat encrpdf.ps | gs -sDEVICE=x11 -
  
  2. Open the second attachment with Adobe Reader 8.1.1 (acroread) and try
  to print it on a non-PostScript printer and on a system where you did
  not manually apply the workarounds which I have shown in this bug
  report. Or print it into a file and then do the test case (1) with this
  file.
  
  3. Do test case (2) with any encrypted/usage-restricted PDF file.
