Severity: normal
Tags: patch
In some circumstances, 'dvips -E -i' can produce an invalid PostScript
file by miscounting the number of fonts it puts in a dictionary.
A dvi file and corresponding EPSF files to produce the bug available on
request.
The patch is a one-line fix to finclude.c, which is obviously correct:
you should count the number of (font, resolution) pairs you _actually_
output, not the number that you _consider_ outputting.
Best,
Dylan Thurston

Yes; this bug was fixed very soon after I opened it; I'm surprised
it's still open.
