Just installed the Amiga 68k version, working well.  Keep up the great work!


Does anyone else have the problem of the Amiga Ghostscript port chopping off the top 20mm or so from PostScript documents saved (via print options) from Final Writer 97?

It's always done it as far as I can remember from all earlier versions, up to this new version here.
The same PS document displays OK under Ghostscript for windows, and also prints OK when sent to a PS printer.

Yes, I've tried the fw2pdf_Driscoll.rexx script.

There's some kind of problem, as it asks for a destination filename, but then no PDF file is ever produced, with no error messages.

Paths names in the script have been edited to the correct ones.

I'll have to sit down and do some proper Arexx debugging to find out what's going on.

Will keep you posted.

Re: AFPL Ghostscript 8.50 - using A4 paper and FW

You wee beauty, I set the A4 default paper size as suggested, and it's now working perfectly!

Had no idea Ghostscript's default was Letter, I don't know anyone who uses that paper size?!

Thanks for the updated FW Arexx script too, I'll give that a try.

I mainly use the Ghostscript front end by Michael Merkel (which also works well with GS850) so I get a nice GUI for print preview, convert to PDF, etc.

And thanks again Woosh, keep up the great work!
