Is Therion producing something which isn't to spec, or producing a newer version PDF that Ghostscript isn't prepared for? I was using Therion 5.3
PDFs should conform the specification, but they are quite complex and
as therion constructs them using low-level PDF commands and there is a
custom EPS to PDF conversion, there is a possibility for some errors.
Therion output is usually tested in Adobe Reader, which is quite
sensitive to problematic PDF files. I tried to convert some complex
maps to JPG format using GS 8.71 and did not get any warnings. Could
you post some problematic file?
