Confirmed. The spacing of the lettering is completely out. Comparison of -dDEBUG output between 8.70-6.el5 and 9.01-1.fc15 shows that 9.01-1.fc15 (which gets it right) has extra FAPI debugging output: FAPIhook DIN-LightAlternate Trying to render the font Font DIN-LightAlternate with FAPI... Font DIN-LightAlternate is being rendered with FAPI=FreeType [...] FAPIhook DIN-LightAlternate Font DIN_LightAlternate is mapped to FAPI=FreeType Trying the Resource/Init/gs_fapi.ps from 9.01 as a drop-in replacement has no discernable effect. Will need to try bisecting between the two revisions to see when/why/how it was fixed. May be related to bug #694649. *** Bug 694649 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Created attachment 491523 [details]
