Ghostscript problem report form

 Before using this form, please read the instructions for reporting problems.
If you are running a developer or beta version of Ghostscript, and you are an
experienced tester (for example, if you have been testing Ghostscript for more
than a year, or you have already submitted at least two problem reports that
we accepted for investigation), you can send an informal report to the place
indicated below. Otherwise, please fill out this form completely. Fill out all
applicable items in this form.

 Most importantly, you must include all data (PostScript files, PDF files,
batch/script files, and/or fonts) required to reproduce the problem, either by
giving a URL from which we can download the data, or by including the data
with the report itself. If you don't include this information, we can't
investigate the problem. Please note that the bug reports are publicly
archived, so the information you provide will be generally available. If the
test data absolutely must remain confidential, please so indicate on the form
below and provide an address we may contact privately for the file.

 Once you have prepared the report, go to http://bugs.ghostscript.com. and
follow the instructions there. Data files can be attached to the bug report
after the bug is submitted. Use the completed problem reporting form as the
body of the Bugzilla submission. If by some reason the Bugzilla doesn't work
for you, bugs can be submitted as follows:
If you are running MS-DOS, MS Windows, or OS/2, and you are reasonably sure
that the problem is specific to your platform, mail to
bug-gswin at ghostscript.com.
If you are running MacOS, and you are reasonably sure that the problem is
specific to the Mac, mail to mac-gs at ghostscript.com.
Otherwise, mail to bug-gs at ghostscript.com.


 Fully completed problem reports help us improve Ghostscript. Thanks in
advance.
