Hi boys, I've got a painful problem with gs, and also a PS printer, that I do not understand well (guess why I ask you!). I wrote a PS output for our vlsi cad system that takes a cell as input and produces some PS file, so I can generate small and big examples without pain. The small PS files work well, but the big ones generate a ``limitcheck'' error under gs. Hint : using the Sparc pageview previewer, and the NewsPrint interpreter on the SparcPrinter work all right for both small and big examples! Is there some know limitations of gs? I'd like to be able to print plots on any PS device, so gs is a good candidate, and our system manager wants to use in the near futur gs as raterizer for the SparPrinter. So I'm stucked with that problem, and I'd greatly appriciate some pointer on that. Thanks. Fred. P.S : I do not send any example, because it's too much for the net. +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | +------------+ +-----------------+ | | | | +---+ Frederic PETROT | | | | | +-----+---+----+ | | | | | +--+-----+ | | | | | | | | +---------+--+ | | | +---------+-------+ | | | | | | | | | +---+ | | | | | | +--- / \+/ \ ----+------- | ----+---------------------+ | | | / / \ | | Equipe CAO&VLSI | | | | +---+ \ \ | | Laboratoire MASI | | | | \ \ +---+ | | | | | | | \ / / +--------------+ | | | | \ / \ / Couloir 55-65, 2eme etage, Bureau 201 | | | | +---+ Universite Pierre et Marie Curie (P6) | | | +-------------- 4 place Jussieu, 75252 Paris Cedex 05 + | | | | | Tel: 44.27.54.15 Fax: | 44.27.62.86 | | Telex: UPMCSIX200145F e-mail: petrot@masi.ibp.fr | +--------------------------------------+------------------------------------+
