--- Begin Message ---Package: pgf Version: 2.00-1 Severity: normal [ Sorry for the vague subject, if you can think of a better one, please ] [ change it... ] I had a strage error of dvipdf refusing to work and cooked it down to this: ====================================================================== \documentclass{article} \usepackage{tikz} \begin{document} \begin{tikzpicture} \coordinate (dune) at (5, 0); \node (gmshreader) at (0, 0) {gmsh}; \draw[shading=axis] (gmshreader.east) -- (dune); \end{tikzpicture} \end{document} ====================================================================== My primary test was creating a .pdf file with the help of latex and dvipdf. With the code above, dvipdf would fail (see below for error message). Removing "[shading=axis]" would make it work. I also tried pdflatex and viewing the .pdf with evince. That worked fine, however evince gave some "matrix not invertible" warnings, which suggests a division by zero somewhere (the gs error messages might suggest that as well, but sadly I don't speak a single word of postscript). The test case tries to vertically shade a path consisting of a horizontal line, I can imagine that can lead to a division by zero. OK, so this is probably an error by the author of the document above, but a good error message would really be nice, if that is possible. Preferably at the time latex/pdflatex is run. Thanks, Jö. Here are several things I tried and their results: When I run that through "latex test.tex" I get test.dvi with no problem.
