Hi Peter, To answer your previous email, the PDF output is completely blank. As for using pstopdf, I get an error message, %%[ Error: undefined; OffendingCommand: obj ]%% Stack: 0 2 %%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%% %%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %% pstopdf failed on file gaga.eps with error code -31000 so the eps file may be indeed corrupted upon its creation. For some reason, no PDF file is created when I run the system printer's convertor.

The convertor programme is complete 'silent' because it's meant to be a filter programme that prepares one thing for another thing, every other than the filtered output could cause problems. Have you tried on the command line 'open '? And please make a difference between "ps2pdf," which is part of Ghostscript, and "pstopdf," which is an Apple programme! If you used ps2pdf on the command line and it gave a similiar error as the one mentioned in your previous eMail then it's likely that the EPS file on disk is damaged ... -- Greetings Pete »¿ʇı̣ É™snqÉ? ʇ,uÉ?É” noÊŽ ɟı̣ É“uı̣ɥʇʎuÉ? sı̣ pooÉ“ ʇÉ?É¥Ê?« ------------------------- Info -------------------------- Mac-TeX Website: http://www.esm.psu.edu/mac-tex/ & FAQ: http://latex.yauh.de/faq/TeX FAQ: http://www.tex.ac.uk/faqList Archive: http://tug.org/pipermail/macostex-archives/ ===========End of original message text=========== ------------------------- Info -------------------------- Mac-TeX Website: http://www.esm.psu.edu/mac-tex/ & FAQ: http://latex.yauh.de/faq/ TeX FAQ: http://www.tex.ac.uk/faq List Archive: http://tug.org/pipermail/macostex-archives/
