David,
Hmmm. Ghostscript doesn't seem to have an "upgrade" path, just a "download".
Which I did and installed 9.27. But Fresco is still picking up 9.20. Any idea
how to get Fresco to change its allegiance?
It might be that my 9.20 seems to be the 32-bit version, and I downloaded the
64-bit version which fits the OS better (windows Home 64 bit).
Best regards,
Peter
