Ghostscript353 good enough ???
Look on Aminet, it will display PDF files nicely, though not as fast as 
Acrobat on my Shapeshifter Mac :(

Expect a new release the next couple of days.

I tried it....locks up my Amiga if I try the default (view on screen).

I get pages with no text when I try to print to my printer with it. (Brother
HL630 with the HP_LaserJet printer driver).

I have fonts installed (I used the same ones I use with gs3.33 at work on
UNIX).

I tried it with PNG and it worked that way....fonts show up correctly....

Greetings,

> Ghostscript353 good enough ???

Apparently not! Two others (Hi! Steve & Bernie) and myself have been trying
to figure out how to get GS353 to work past the help screen.

> Expect a new release the next couple of days.

Of GS??

Virtually confused,

Auto-config: just another concept that Bill Gates/IBM/Apple didn't invent.

Yes, with more if not all drivers included, no use of stackextend which seems 
to have problems and a fix in the docs which made a lot of people very unhappy.

I'm interested in what config you guys have that won't work. I tried it on a 
few machines and the only CPU not tried is mc68000.
There are problems with Kickstart 3.1 and 68040.library/math_libs. A fix 
exists on Aminet.

Please mail me your problems and I'll try to come up with some suggestions.

Thanks,

Joop
