I've also tried just 'convert >Alicia.i30001.ps Alicia.i30001.jpg' to no avail. Can you help? Hi, it works here for me, it takes a few minutes for it to process though, maybe you were impatient? What I saw was your gs verbose message repeated twice. It appeared first, then a few minutes later a new gs string appeared, then a few minutes later, it was done. To be honest, I did modify your ps file, and it may be why it worked for me. I noticed that when opening it in 'gv' it never finished loading.... I had the hourglass cursor forever. So I opened the file (I used joe), and added %%EOF at the end, then it worked in the convert command. To test the theory, I then removed the %%EOF and ran it again.... and it still worked. So I'm guessing your original file, may not have been properly terminated with a Control-D, or whatever? And the joe editor fixed the problem? Or maybe your OS changes are preventing that big of a file to be loaded? Just a guess, I don't feel like downloading it again. :-) zentara -- I'm not really a human, but I play one on earth. http://www.zentara.net/~zentaran/Remember_How_Lucky_You_Are.html _______________________________________________ Magick-users mailing list [email protected] http://studio.imagemagick.org/mailman/listinfo/magick-users
