Regarding the discussion on using netpbm vs ImageMagick: The attached file (unzipped) produces no output .ppm file. I've tried with gs7.03 compiled with gcc3.03 and gs5.50 compiled with gcc2.95.2 The maintainer of netpbm says it is a ghostscript problem, and that appears to be the case. -------------- pstopnm -verbose ecg.sol pstopnm: Input file is ecg.sol pstopnm: Using %%BoundingBox statement from input. pstopnm: Extracting the box ((0,0),(254,227)) pstopnm: With borders, extracted box is ((-25,-23),(279,250)) pstopnm: Writing ppmraw file pstopnm: Shell command: gs -sDEVICE='ppmraw' -sOutputFile='ecg.sol%03d.ppm' -g'610x679' -r'161x161' -q -dNOPAUSE - pstopnm: Postscript prefix command: '90 rotate -25 neg 250 neg translate' ------------- but no .ppm file generated :( ImageMagick does work. pstopnm works on some files, but generates large output files. --------------------------------- bash$ pstopnm -verbose sim1.ps pstopnm: Input file is sim1.ps pstopnm: Warning: no %%BoundingBox statement in the input or command line.
