Comment 4 Tim Waugh 2002-05-22 11:06:31 UTC 
The segmentation fault is fixed in 7.05-3 (in rawhide), but the 'undefined' 
error persists.
Comment 5 Alex Cherepanov 2002-10-15 15:35:02 UTC 
The /undefined in NR is the same problem as #74169

The PDF file is incorrect.
One of the fonts in the file uses /NP procedure but doesn't define it.
Acrobat Reader and other PDF-only interpreters don't see the problem
because they don't execute PostScript code in Type 1 font.

On Ghostscript this procedure can be defined from command line.
gs -c "/NP{noaccess put}bind def" -f Uebung8.pdf
