            Description

            A sample PDF produced by Ghostscript 8.7 in PDF/A compatibility mode did not correctly render. After a lot of debugging and reading of the specification I was apple to figure out what was going on. When handling a CID font we always assumed that it was a 2 byte code were in fact the the CID can be 1 or 2 bytes as defined by the CIDSystemInfo dictionary.

            Because this problem occurred deep in the parser it affected both version of the product, OS and PRO.
