Help,
I am trying to debug an error that I get using textogif. I have run textogif
only to find that it makes it to the Ghostscript stage only to fail. So I
resolved to running each stage independently to find out what happens. The file
below is the one I'm trying to process.
-- math.tex --
\documentstyle[12pt]{article}
\pagestyle{empty}
\begin{document}
\begin{displaymath}
\bf
\zeta(s) = \sum_{n=1}^\infty {1\over n^s}
= \prod_{p \rm\ prime} (1 - 1/p^s)^{-1}
\end{displaymath}
\end{document}
-- end math.tex --
What's below are the indiviual stage outputs. The error occurs in the
Ghostscript stage. The versions that I am using are

Notice that the offending line is GS>(_temp_test) ppm1run. Any help on this
would be greatly appreciated. I've attached all of the intermediate files if
they are of any help. _temp_test.ppm contains no data.
Sincerely,
Ben Heard
