Re: Problems with teTeX on FreeBSD 4.7
Thanks for your bug report. Since you have found your work-around and since I am close to release a new version of teTeX, it does not make much sense to try fixing teTeX-1.0.7 in this respect. The current teTeX-beta (which is already close to the next teTeX release) is known to work fine on FreeBSD/i386. If you want to try it yourself, follow the beta versions link on the teTeX homepage (http://tug.org/teTeX/). Thomas i've looked over the list of supported teTeX platforms at the above link, but none of them corresponds to my platform, which is X86/cygwin . do you support the cygwin platform, or are the cygwin people responsible for that? gene
Re: incredibly strange problem distilling a LaTeX--based .ps file
Did you check the bug reports on sourceforge? Is this bug #524292 (present in gs7.03-7.10, but not 6.51, now marked as closed): http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=1897atid=101897func=detailaid=524292 -- George White [EMAIL PROTECTED] Head of St. Margarets Bay, Nova Scotia thanx a whole lot for bringing this bug report to my attention. i have indeed been using gs7.03 - 7.10, and a workaround described at sourceforge, using -dCompatibilityLevel=1.3 in ps2pdf, fixes the problem. interestingly, the gswin32c i've been using is based on gs7.0, so the bug must have slipped through the crack between the gs versions i've been using. i've just become aware that gs 8.0 is now available, and i hope the problem is absent there. gene
