Bug#561027: [glabels] problem printing with nimbus sans L font

Package: glabels
Version: 2.2.5-1
Severity: normal

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---

A label that had worked failed to print. Cups was reporting the print 
job complete. I enabled PS errors on my samsung ML-2851ND and got output 
that reported a problem. ERROR: undefined, OFFENDING COMMAND: 0a, STACK: 
false, --mark--,

The label displayed ok in print preview. I printed the label to a file 
and  it displayed properly in xpdf, and print was successful.

Then I created a new label with one text object like the failing case 
but with out modifying any parameters. It  printed successfully, I 
modified one parameter of the test case at a time targeting a match with 
the failing case. When I matched the font selection, Nimbus Sans L, the 
print of the test case failed.

I created a document in openoffice that used the Nimbus Sans L font and 
it printed ok.

I'm not convinced that this is a glabels problem, but am not sure how to 
further isolate the problem. The font cache is kinda mysterious.
