Subject: gs-gpl: Displays Courier Font in wrong size

Package: gs-gpl
Version: 8.01-5
Severity: normal

This bug also occurs in the packages that are in the Cc, gs-afpl and xpdf.

When viewing the file http://dust.ess.uci.edu/hire/sdn_grd_02_adv.pdf,
the Courier fonts are displayed in a greater size than the other
letters (looks like 12 compared to 10). You can get an impression of
how it should look like if you use acroread, or the woody versions of
gs and xpdf.

$ pdffonts sdn_grd_02_adv.pdf

------------------------------------ ------------ --- --- ------------
TLZWPV+CMR17 Type 1 yes yes no 32 0
Courier Type 1 no no no 37 0
Times-Roman Type 1 no no no 40 0
Times-Bold Type 1 no no no 39 0
