PS + PDF

Post by chaigne »

Hi,

I have some trouble with a PDF output (after PS). I use a MiKTeX 2.8 distribution with TeXnicCenter. I use the Wizard configuration. It correctly runs with DVI and PS. I have some eps pictures and i 'd like to have a PDF output. With a good file.tex, the PDF output (PS + PDF ) shows me only pictures without text (or a few caracters). What kind of problem is it? Do you have an idea?

Thank you

It could be a problem with your Ghostscript installation (it is Ghostscript that converts PS to PDF).

Hi,

Thank you for your answer. Unfortunetely, it does not run. To be sure, I have dowloaded the 8.71 ghostscript's version and re install it.

In the Windows "Profiles". The Executable is

C:\Program Files\gs\gs8.71\bin\gswin32c.exe

and the Arguments are
-sPAPERSIZE=a4 -dSAFER -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -s OutputFile="%bm.pdf" -c save pop -f "%bm.ps"

But the Arguments are a litte bit mysterious for me !

And you are sure your dvi and ps files are ok? Or do you use a non-standard font?

What is a "non-standard font"? :) I'm curious, I've never heard of this term before. :shock:

Do you use the Computer Modern font? Then you need to install the "cm-super" package.
