            Bug ID: 85662
           Summary: Patch for not using '\' to split strings across
                    multiple lines breaks printing and PS viewers
           Product: cairo
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: Other
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: general
          Assignee: chris at chris-wilson.co.uk

This patch [1] breaks PostScript printing with pdftocairo to Ricoh printers:
only the last line of the sequence is printed. 

For example, if you have this in your .ps file, 
(aaa)
(bbb)
(cc)
only "cc" will appear on the page. 

PostScript viewers also fail to parse it: neither GhostScript nor Evince are
able display these lines. 

Please revert or fix the patch?
