I do not know weather or not the PostScript specification requests that a fall back font is used when the font is not available. In case it does not, it would be a permitted response to reject the EPS as invalid. However since the author(s) of Ghostscript choose to use a fall back font there is definitely a Bug in Ghostscript. Since the existents of the pagul font disables this behavior. > This is why I filed #662892 against ghostscript rather than octave or > gnuplot.

The other error is in Octave IMHO, since it also should not set an invalid font as default. If it is allowed by the PostScript specification it would still be not a good programming style.
