Description Unknown 2002-06-19 20:27:18 UTC 
Whenever I create text in my drawing with only one character, such  
as for instance a label in a graph "3", and I export to eps, I  
cannot convert the resulting eps to pdf using epstopdf of ps2pdf. I  
get the following error message:    
  
abn@kabel208111:~/abn/images/istg> epstopdf semiconductoracc.eps  
Error: /stackunderflow in --scale--  
Operand stack:  
   --nostringval--   (6)  
Execution stack:  
   %interp_exit   .runexec2   --nostringval--   --nostringval--

--nostringval--   --nostringval--   false   1   %stopped_push   1

--dict:97/200(L)--   --dict:97/200(L)--  
Current allocation mode is local  
Last OS error: 2  
AFPL Ghostscript 7.04: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1  
  
The same thing happens with single characters in sub- or  
superscripts.  
  
If however I enter space-number-space, as in " 3 ", the conversion  
to pdf is done without problem. My guess is there is a bug in the  
eps export filter for entries with single characters.

After talking to a developer I set this issue as double to issue 3032.
Thanks for your help. The problem will be fixed in the next version.
