Can we confirm the same version of !PDF is in use on Pi, and similar
RISC OS version? One possibility was that it could be related to the
Unicode font manager in some way, which would explain why a) older
versions of !PDF are OK (maybe not using UniCode font manager) and b)
why RiscPC was unaffected.
However, if Pi/Iyonix is OK with same version of PDF and (roughly)
similar versions of RISC OS, it doesn't help.
For reference, I don't *think* this is Panda specific, as I've heard
of the same issue with Cortex A8/Beagle. Pi can be set to ARMv5 or
ARMv6/7 if memory serves via the !Configure plugin - might be worth
testing the same version of !PDF/!Printers on that in ARMv5/6 modes?
