| Doc Text: |
Previously, including a large JBIG2 compressed image in the PDF input file could cause the pdf2ps conversion utility to terminate unexpectedly with a segmentation fault. This was caused by the fact that the result of the "jbig2_image_new" function call was not always checked properly. This error has been fixed, and the inclusion of JBIG2 images no longer causes pdf2ps to crash.
