Hi,
using dvips 5.47 I tried to include a PostScript figure created on a
Mac with a scanner into my TeX document. I used \epsfbox to to so. The
EPS file looks like the following:
%%BoundingBox: 0 0 556 341
%%Creator: Microtek Scanner DA
%%Title: stocker
%%CreationDate: 1992 8 5Wed
%%EndComments
%!PS-Adobe-2.0 EPSF-1.2
/width 2320 def
/height 1424 def
/depth 1 def
/pixwidth 556 def
/pixheight 341 def
/concatprocs
{/proc2 exch cvlit def
/proc1 exch cvlit def
/newproc proc1 length proc2 length add array def
newproc 0 proc1 putinterval
newproc proc1 length proc2 putinterval newproc cvx
} def
/picstr width depth mul 8 div cvi string def
/dopic
{ gsave

HERE IS SOMETHING LIKE BINARY DATA. PLENTY OF ASCII-0, etc. The file
ends with
showpage
FOLLOWED BY A ASCII-0
If I look at the file with GhostScript, it displays just fine. After
including it into the TeX file, the picture is just a mess (though at
the right place). GhostScript gives an error message after the figure:
Operand stack:
-savetype- 0 0.0039
Execution stack:
%interp_exit --nostringval-- --nostringval-- false --nostringval-- --nostringval-- false --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval--
Dictionary stack:
432/449 7/200 122/200 45/200
Ghostscript 2.4.1 (4/21/92)
and the rest of the page isn't displayed anymore.
Can anybody help, please?
Thanks a lot,
Fritz
