Hi Joerg... test.pdf looks OK but would you please tell how you did
this!
I downloaded Gostscript 7.00 (Win)
             Gsview          (Win)
             Redmon          (Win)

             Aladdin Ghostscript (MS DOS) (Win) (OS/2) (UNIX) (VMS)

(downloading time 68 minutes... GS 7.00 is BIG)

Installed the DOS files... no way!
Installed all the files... something is hapening, but...
 typed: GS and no reaction followed
 typed: ps2pdf (ps2pdf.bat)
        "Usage: ps2pdf [options] input.ps output.pdf"

I gave existing input.ps and output filename, but...
"Wrong command or filename"

"gs -h" should give the HELP, but...

==== Please Joerg give some more information on this ====
