This test passed for 1.4.2_05b2 on solaris 10 build 52/53
Looks like build 62 (or earlier) has broken this testcase.

testcase also fails now with 1.4.2_05b2 on build62


testcase passes for tiger-beta3.

We see that the offending font is: 
  /usr/sfw/share/a2ps/fonts/pcfont.pfa 

pcfont.pfa - Type 3 font providing support for line drawing PC encoding.
This is a new font in Sol 10 , at least over Sol 9.

=========================================

Sun's Java 2 Runtime Environment supports TrueType and PostScript Type 1 fonts.

pcfont.pfa is Type 3 but is being picked up by java because it is installed on
the system and has extension pfa. From /var/sadm/install/contents:

Java makes the assumption that extension pfa is Type 1. In this case this is not 
true. I am uncertain if extension pfa is reserved for Type 1 fonts. If this is
the case then the font needs to be renamed. 

Reassigning to classes_2D so that this bug shows up on the correct product list.
