Description Unknown 2002-08-23 20:38:22 UTC 
I am using OOo 1.0.1. under RedHat Linux 7.3. I was trying to print a
document (with lots of EPS pictures) to PDF (using standard GhostScript's
PDF writer, and ADISTILL printer driver). My question is this:

- Acrobat Reader 5.0 (both Win and Linux) complains: "The font
'Times-Bold~26' contains a bad /BBox." Why is this?

- I checked the PDF produced (i.e. take a look at the PDF binary), it is level 
1.3. I downgraded that to 1.2., the message still appears

- the PDF produced by this has some strange font names, like Times-Bold~26,
Times-Bold~3a, and so on. I have never seen these in other PDFs produced by
Acrobat Distiller (Under Win2000).

- When all the EPS images were removed from the file, and I printed again,
there was no such "Times-Bold~26" thing. All are just Times-Bold as usual.

Why is this? Could you point out what's wrong? I am using GhostScript
version 6.52 in the Linux box.

basically around the EPS files inside the resulting PostScript
document there should be a %%BeginDocument/%%EndDocument pair; if
these are missing ghostscript gets confused. You can workaround this
by putting these lines around the embedded EPS files; which is quite
arduous in case of many EPS files. Alternatively you can probably
produce EPS files by putting "%%BeginDocument: none" at their
beginning and %%EndDocument at their end. This will be fixed in OOo 1.1
