Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. I propose to fix the above problem. 1. source 1-1. gnu-ghostscript-8.62.0.tar.bz2 1-2. ghostscript-fonts-other-6.0.tar.gz 1-3. ghostscript-fonts-std-8.11.tar.gz 1-4. CMap file (installed from ghostscript-library-8.15.4-3.x86_64.rpm which is included in 10.3) 2. patches You can get patches for Japanes via; http://developer.momonga-linux.org/wiki/?ghostscript-8.61 [pathes] 2-1. ghostscript-8.61-gs-cjk-examples-20070806.patch 2-2. ghostscript-8.61-gs-cjk-metrics-20070803.mod.patch 2-3. ghostscript-8.61-gs-cjk-ps-20070803.mod.patch Apply ghostscript-8.61-gs-cjk-ps-20070803.mod.patch after make. Anyway. these patches only one rej file, but it is easy to fix it. I ran configure script as follows; LDFLAGS=-liconv ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --disable-compile-inits --with-drivers=ALL --with-fontpath=/usr/share/fonts Of cource, I've installed libiconv-1.12.tar.gz already. After all, it can display Japanese PS files, including aricle9.ps! [One problem] When displaying hankau.ps, \(Japanese En sign) is not hankaku, but Zenkaku. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

As I can see those are only described in Japanese. Beside this I'd like to know if those patches do not break other languages. If this can npt make sure those patches will not added. The best would be that those patches would be accepted upstream. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Masaru Nomiya> 1-4. CMap file (installed from ghostscript-library-8.15.4-3.x86_64.rpm Masaru Nomiya> which is included in 10.3) The package ghostscript-cjk contains the CMap files I don’t think you have to install other CMap files. The package ghostscript-cjk also contains a configuration script /usr/sbin/ghostscript-cjk-config which is automatically called by SuSEconfig (/sbin/conf.d/SuSEconfig.ghostscript-cjk). According to the installed fonts, a /usr/share/ghostscript/8.62/lib/cidfmap is generated. For example, when the IPA fonts are installed, cidfmap should contain: mfabian@magellan:~$ grep Ryumin-Light /usr/share/ghostscript/8.62/lib/cidfmap /Ryumin-Light << /FileType /TrueType /Path (/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ipam.ttf) /SubfontID 0 /CSI [(Japan1) 2] >> ; % autogenerated by ghostscript-cjk-config mfabian@magellan:~$ grep GothicBBB-Medium /usr/share/ghostscript/8.62/lib/cidfmap /GothicBBB-Medium << /FileType /TrueType /Path (/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ipag.ttf) /SubfontID 0 /CSI [(Japan1) 2] >> ; % autogenerated by ghostscript-cjk-config mfabian@magellan:~$ Ghostscript on 11.1 then displays the article9.ps document correctly with the IPA fonts: mfabian@magellan:~/test-texts/postscript$ gs article9.ps GPL Ghostscript 8.62 (2008-02-29) Copyright (C) 2008 Artifex Software, Inc.

The only thing which is not correct is the orientation of the brackets and punctuation symbols for vertical context. But I cannot reproduce that ghostscript doesn’t display Japanese Postscript at all, this works for me in 11.1. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Do you have the package ghostscript-cjk installed?

No, I haven't. But, with /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/truetype/sazanami-mincho.ttf & sazanami-gothic.ttf, gs could display article9.ps. So, I didn't think of ghostscript-cjk.

...

The only thing which is not correct is the orientation of the brackets and punctuation symbols for vertical context.

I confirmed it. I do want to display article9.ps correctly.

But I cannot reproduce that ghostscript doesn’t display Japanese Postscript at all, this works for me in 11.1.

/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/truetype/sazanami-mincho.ttf

You probably mean /usr/share/fonts/truetype/sazanami-mincho.ttf

...

It mostly works, only the brackets and punctuation symbols are still wrong. Closing as WORKSFORME. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
