[Bug 366949] Re: cups-pdf produces large pdfs and text can not be searched

As a result of this behaviour Tracker is no longer able to index the
files and screen readers will likely fail to read the contents as well.

Neither installing the cups-pdf package from 8.10 or 9.10 through a
local repository did improve the situation, PDFs remain only graphic, no
searchable text.

Yet again taking a normal Postscript document and running it through
Ghostscript's ps2pdf resulted in a nice, searchable PDF document.

This bug really affects archiving of content with PDF and accessibility
for users, thus limiting the use of this software which worked fine up
until Jaunty.
