Wow, gopher protocal. It's been ages since I even seen it, and never used it. I can't make the link work. firefox, lynx, and curl give errors when trying to download it. Is there a secret to downloaded stuff using gopher?
I'll make some guesses despite not seeing the file.

If you print your document to a postscript printer it will in theory print ok. No idea why gsview would crash, unless it by default it is specifying gs options that cause ghostscript to break on this file. *shrug* > I tried to use ps2ps(1) to down-level this eps, and obtained another file: > > gopher://realss.com/99/this_week/Realss_International_Publication_background_ps2.eps.gz > (warning: 4MB) > > This graphic when inserted into openoffice, the result is nothing happend > (no graphic inserted) > > I am not sure if this is an openoffice problem or an scribus problem.

Your other option is to use ghostscript to convert your eps to an image. something like: gs -sOutputFile=foo.jpg -sDEVICE=jpeg -r=300 -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE bar.eps cheers dc -- David Purton dcpurton at chariot.net.au For the eyes of the LORD range throughout the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him. 2 Chronicles 16:9a -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
