Hi team,
Attached file, when converted to PS3 with pdftops, cannot be processed by Ricoh printers that seemingly use Adobe Distiller embedded engine to parse it.
When resulting PostScript file is opened with Adobe Distiller XI for Windows, the following error message appears:
Adobe PostScript software version: 3018.101 CID support library initialization completed. Adobe PDF Settings: C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Adobe PDF\Settings\Standard.joboptions %%[ Warning: Times-BoldItalic not found, using Font Substitution. Font cannot be embedded. ]%% %%[ Error: undefined; OffendingCommand: xyshow ]%%

The original PDF is attached. The resulting PS was made with poppler 0.24.1, command line pdftops -r 300 -level3 -origpagesizes
It is available here: https://docs.google.com/uc?export=download&id=0B-vV7Qx5rjpEVWxVSWtFZU5UX2s
What can be done to make the output more compatible with Adobe products?
