RE: Kghostview font problem

Hi,

Better late than never: the Fontmap file seems problematic.
There are embedded spaces in the 'Proxy' font names.

Replace the lines (N= 1 to 9):

Source code

1
2
3
/Proxy N (mtproxyN.ttf) ;
/ProxyN-Roman /Proxy N ;
/ProxyN /Proxy N ;
with:

Source code

1
2
/ProxyN (mtproxyN.ttf) ;
/ProxyN-Roman /ProxyN ;
and the error will disappear.

Well at last someone!
Happy New Year!!!
OK now it doesn't give me errors but I'm still having problems viewing .ps files.
,they look all messed up.

Best wishes for 2007!

Did you try viewing a file that is known to work?

I used the CUPS print test file.
On my slackware box I found two of such files:
/usr/share/cups/data/testprint.ps
and
/opt/kde/share/apps/kdeprint/testprint.ps

Try running "gs <filename>" from within an X console.
Either the page pops up or you should get error info.

Btw, "messed up" as info is rather difficult to trace :-)

hth!

You can see in attachment what I mean by "messed up".
That is /opt/kde/share/apps/kdeprint/testprint.ps

And this is what I get when I try it in console:

"ESP Ghostscript 815.02 (2006-04-19)"

Console shows you are using ESP Ghostscript 8.15.

There are bugs reported with version 8.15.
Google "esp ghostscript slackware 10.2" for stories.
Some people solve their problems by downgrading to ESP Ghostscript 7.07 (from Slackware 10.1) or by upgrading to AFPL Ghostscript 8.53 and later.

Ghostscript versions can be found here.

Thanks a lot.
I see that even Slack.11 has the same package.
Soon I will upgrade to 11th so I wondered if it has the latest version.
