Bug Description

I have run the following command line in a terminal window:

cat ~/ghostscript/testfiles/CityMap-evince-pdftopdf.pdf | /usr/bin/gs -dQUIET -dPARANOIDSAFER -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -dNOINTERPOLATE -sDEVICE=cups -sstdout=%stderr -sOutputFile=%stdout -sMediaType=Plain -sOutputType=0 -r300x600 -dMediaPosition=7 -dDEVICEWIDTHPOINTS=612 -dDEVICEHEIGHTPOINTS=792 -dcupsBitsPerColor=8 -dcupsColorOrder=0 -dcupsColorSpace=17 -dcupsInteger0=2 -scupsPageSizeName=Letter -I/usr/share/cups/fonts -c -f -_ > out.raster

Output is as follows:

----------
