PostScript printing bug under Linux

Description

Printing under Linux fails if the font used for printing contains a space in its name. A colleague had set his font to "Lucida Bright". Printing would fail with this error message: 

%%[ Error: undefined; OffendingCommand: Bright ]%%

Stack:
/Lucida

The reason is that the name of the font isn't properly encoded. The line reads: 

/Lucida Bright findfont

In PostScript? "Bright" is treated as a command. The workaround was to specify a font without spaces in its name.
