Description Johannes Meixner 2005-08-24 10:01:00 UTC 
I have beta2 installed on x86_64 machine caps.suse.de

gs segfaults when pcl3 driver is used in CMYK mode:

root@caps # gs -q -dBATCH -dPARANOIDSAFER -dQUIET -dNOPAUSE \
               -sDEVICE=pcl3 -sSubdevice=unspec -sColorModel=CMYK \
               -sOutputFile=/tmp/pcl3 \
               /usr/share/doc/packages/ghostscript/examples/colorcir.ps
get_encode_color: no color encoding information
set_cinfo_polarity: different polarity already set
set_cinfo_polarity: different polarity already set
Segmentation fault

The CMYK mode is used by default in many PPD files for the pcl3 driver.

It works when using -sColorModel=CMY -sColorModel=CMY+K -sColorModel=Gray.

Comment 2 Dr. Werner Fink 2005-08-25 13:12:34 UTC 
Fixed but needs testing if the coloring for -sColorModel=CMY,
-sColorModel=CMY+K, -sColorModel=Gray, -sColorModel=RGB, and
-sColorModel=CMYK really works.
Comment 3 Dr. Werner Fink 2005-08-25 13:12:53 UTC 
see /work/src/done/STABLE/ghostscript-library.werner/
Comment 4 Johannes Meixner 2005-08-25 13:21:37 UTC 
will test it...
Comment 5 Johannes Meixner 2005-08-25 14:27:37 UTC 
I built and installed /work/src/done/STABLE/ghostscript-library.werner/
on my x86_64 machine caps.suse.de

Now all ColorModels (CMYK, CMY+K, CMY, RGB, Gray) work for me
(using a HP DeskJet 990C) and all "pcl3" PPD files pass my test.
