The problem does indeed seem to be with ghostscript. Fortunately, my university hasn't updated their installs in ~5 years: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- % ghostscript --version 8.15.2 --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Previewing works fine there. On arch, the Arch User Repositories contain a ghostscript-svn package, but after building and installing it, it turns out that it provides gs 9.03 which seems to suffer from the same troubles. I guess I'll just have to wait for a new release of previewlatex or ghostscript. -- Philipp Haselwarter _______________________________________________ auctex mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/auctex
