When I run ps2pdf I get the following error messages: norman@host:~$ ps2pdf test.ps test.pdf While reading gs_dbt_e.ps: ERROR: /syntaxerror in -file- Operand stack: (gs_cidfm.ps) 1 --nostringval-- Execution stack: %interp_exit --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- %array_continue --nostringval-- --nostringval-- false 1 %stopped_push --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- Dictionary stack: --dict:928/1123(G)-- --dict:0/20(G)-- --dict:74/200(L)-- --dict:928/1123(G)-- --dict:8/8(G)-- --dict:1/1(G)-- Current allocation mode is global Current file position is 4623 norman@host:~$ I have tried re-installing gs and gs-esp without affect. Files test.ps, gs_dbt_e.ps and gs_cidfm.ps all checked against a working system as being good. Regardless of what postscript file I try to convert, the "Current file position is 4623" remains exactly the same. The host is running Ubuntu 7.04. Any suggestions as to what I should re-install will be much appreciated.
