Ghostscript is an interpreter for the PostScript page description language used by laser printers. For documents following the Adobe PostScript Document Structuring Conventions, GSview allows selected pages to be viewed or printed. GSview 4.6 requires Ghostscript 7.04 - 9.19.

The following instructions describe how to install GSview without using the installation program. Set the environment variable TEMP to point to a directory for temporary files. For example: SET TEMP=c:\tempThe directory must exist and must be writeable. First you need to install Ghostscript, plus its library files and fonts. You need the Ghostscript version listed in Overview. This version of GSview will not work with other versions of Ghostscript. Install Ghostscript in a directory c:\gs\gsN.NN (Replace N.NN by the Ghostscript version number.)

First correctly set the three text fields (see Advanced Configure). On the Advanced Configure dialog, either select the checkboxes Copy printer defaults, Associate .ps files with GSview and Create Start Menu items, or perform the following three steps. 1. Exit GSview, then append printer.ini to the GSview INI file (c:\windows\gsview32.ini) é FFJI `€A€€‚ã‘ Áû‰‚‚‚‚€€€€€€‚‚ã3šlI‰‚ÿ2. Add the .ps and .eps (and optionally the .pdf) file types to the Registry. 3. Create a Program Manager or Start Menu item for GSview. If you have some Type 1 fonts on your system, it may be possible to tell Ghostscript to use them. See Fontmap.os2 and Fontmap.atm supplied with Ghostscript for examples. See the Fonts topic. If you have problems, try reading the help topic Common Problems. E]H‹J1é «„Âÿÿÿÿ‹J;ˆNetwork InstallationŒZFJN2 2€µ€€€‚‚€‚‚‚‚‚‚‚ÿNetwork InstallationInstall GSview to a network directory. When a user starts GSview for the first time, or starts GSview after the version number has changed, GSview will configure the local computer. Using a UNC path when installing GSview will not work from Windows 3.1, but does work from Windows 95. GSview tries to maintain one configuration file for each user. If user profiles are being used under Windows 95 or NT, GSview will store the INI file in the user profile directory, as specified in the registry. If this can't be found, and the environment variable USERPROFILE is defined and is a directory, GSview will store the INI file in this directory. If this fails, GSview will store the INI file in the default location, the Windows directory. If the user profile directory exists, but is write protected, GSview will have trouble. ^-‹J€1 0€[€€‚ã!hlI‰€€‚ÿIf you wish to stop GSview from displaying the Easy Configure when GSview is first run, or whenever GSview is upgraded, place an INI file in the GSview directory. Remember to remove this file before upgrading GSview in the future. This should contain only those entries that you wish to overwrite in the users configuration. The suggested technique is to install GSview, then configure it. Copy gsview32.ini or gvpm.ini from the systeN€FJm directory or your user profile directory to the GSview directory, then edit it to remove all entries except for: 9åNº‚T v€Ë€€€‚€€‚€€‚€€‚€€‚€€‚€€‚‚‚‚ÿ [GSview-4.6] Version=4.6 GSversion=813 Configured=1 GhostscriptDLL=e:\gs\gs8.13\bin\gsdll32.dll GhostscriptInclude=e:\gs\gs8.13\lib;e:\gs\fonts GhostscriptOther=-dNOPLATFONTS -sFONTPATH="c:\psfonts"When a user starts GSview, their INI file will normally be used. The first time GSview is run, or when the GSview version doesn't match the INI file, the following will occur: 1. The INI file in the GSview directory will be read, overriding the users INI file. ŒI€F…C T€“€€‚‚‚ãýglI‰ãOhlI‰‚‚ãýglI‰ãOhlI‰‚‚‚ÿ2. The list of printers will be updated from printer.ini in the GSview directory. 3. File associations (.ps, .eps, .pdf) will NOT be made or changed. If you wish to change these you must use Options | Advanced Configure. 4. Program Manager groups / Start menu items / Program objects will NOT be changed. If you wish to change these you must use Options | Advanced Configure. If you are installing on Windows NT4/2000, and you select "All Users", then the installer will write this gsview32.ini into your GSview directory. You must have installed Ghostscript first. 7º‚}‡4 6€€€‚€€‚‚‚€€‚ÿIf a user tries to use the GSview uninstall program, it will try to delete the GSview and Ghostscript files on the network. Make sure the GSview and Ghostscript directories are not writeable by users. To be extra safe, you may wish to remove the file uninstal.txt from the GSview directory. Alternatively, if you want install GSview on each computer without any prompting, unzip the self extracting archive then run the setup program as follows: setup -name "Your Name" -number XXXXX-XXXXX "c:\ghostgum"¾‘F…;ˆ- (€#€€‚‚€€‚‚ÿA silent uninstall can be done using: "C:\Program Files\Ghostgum\gsview\uninstgs.exe" "C:\Program Files\Ghostgum\gsview\uninstal.txt" -qi8}‡¤ˆ1Z )ˆê€ ÿÿÿÿ¤ˆ¡ÂRunning GSview from the File Manager or Windows Explorerß;ˆ·Š4 6€¿€€€‚‚€€€‚‚‚ÿRunning GSview from the File Manager or Windows ExplorerIf you used the GSview setup.exe program and answered yes to all the questions, the following configuration has already occurred. If you didn't update the registry during GSview installation, the following information explains how to do it manually. To run GSview when a PostScript file is double clicked in the File Manager, the following sequence must be followed to teach File Manager about PostScript files. œ¤ˆÓŒ€ ΀9€€‚€€€€€€€€€€€€€€‚€€‚€€‚€€‚€€‚€€‚€€‚€€‚ÿFrom the Program Manager, run the Registration Info Editor using File | Run... then type regedit.

From the File Manager, select File | Associate then enter the following fields: Files with Extension = ps Associate With = PostScript (gsview)Then press OK. That's it! Now when you double click on a PostScript file, the File Manager will run GSview. When you drop a PostScript file on the Print Manager, GSview will print the file. If you have a PostScript printer, this won't be useful. In this case you will need to remove the Print action from the registry. ¢ÓŒ`Áh ž€E€€‚‚‚€€€€€€€€€€‚€€‚€€‚€€‚€€‚€€‚ÿFor Windows 95, the configuration is instead made using Windows Explorer.

Q ëÄÆ1… ê€ ÿÿÿÿÆ\Document Structuring Conventionse+ÍŃÈ: B€W€€€‚‚€ãÜÁû‰ãÜÁû‰‚‚‚ÿDocument Structuring ConventionsAdobe has defined a set of extended comment conventions that provide additional information about the page structure and resource requirements of a PostScript file. If a file contains these Document Structuring Convention (DSC) comments, GSview can display pages in random order using Goto Page and display pages in reverse order using Previous Page. Selected pages can be extracted to another file or printed. If a file does not contain DSC comments, GSview can only display the pages in the original order. \/ÆßÊ- (€_€€‚‚€€‚‚ÿDSC conforming files start with the comment line: %!PS-Adobe-3.0where the number 3.0 may change and is the DSC version number. Some programs write PostScript files with a control-D as the first character of the file, followed by the comment line mentioned above. GSview will correctly report that these files are not DSC conforming, but will still display them with page selection features available. Complain to the author of the program that produced the PostScript file. To make the file DSC conforming, edit it to remove the control-D character. ZƒÈ9ÍD V€-€€‚‚€€‚€€‚‚‚€€‚€€‚‚ÿDSC conforming files contain lines such as: %%Pages: 24 %%Page: 1 1These lines tell GSview how many pages a document contains and where they start. GSview uses this information to select individual pages. Encapsulated PostScript Files (EPSF) are single page documents that contain a subset of the DSC comments and PostScript commands. EPS files start with the comment line: %!PS-Adobe-3.0 EPSF-3.0EPS files are commonly used for inclusion in other documents and for this reason require the bounding box comment: ¸ŽßÊ * "€€€€‚‚‚‚ÿ %%BoundingBox: llx lly urx urywhere llx, lly, urx and ury are integers giving the x and y co-ordinates of the lower left and upper right corners of a bounding box which encloses all marks made on the page. Some EPS files contain a preview of the PostScript document. This preview can be a Windows Metafile, a TIFF file, or an Interchange preview (EPSI format). For the Windows Metafile or TIFF file preview, the EPS file under DOS contains a binary header which specifies the location and lengths of the preview and PostScript language sections of the EPS file. For the Interchange format, the preview is contained in DSC comments starting with 9Í ÍÅP9Í\< F€)€€€‚ãBÁû‰‚‚ãýglI‰ãáolI‰‚ÿ %%BeginPreview: width height depth linesAn EPS file with a preview can be created from an EPS file without a preview using Add EPS Preview.

When displaying, GSview ignores the page size on the Media menu, and instead uses the /MediaBox from the PDF file. If Options | EPS Clip is enabled, GSview will use the /CropBox from the PDF file. GSview needs to Open a PDF file to count the pages. If you Select the file, GSview will not be able to Text Extract, Find, Goto Page or do any other operation that needs to know how many pages are in the document.

To convert a PDF file to a PostScript file, use File | Convert, then select the pswrite device. File | Extract does not work for PDF files. Extracting PDF pages extracts PostScript rather than PDF. To batch convert multiple files, look at ps2pdf.bat and pdf2ps.bat in the Ghostscript directory. You will need to use gswin32c.exe instead of gs.exe. You may also need to set the Ghostscript include path using -I or the environment variable GS_LIB.

If the file contains DSC comments, pages can be selected using Next Page, Previous Page and Goto Page. If the file does not contain DSC comments, Previous Page and Goto Page will not work. Another file should not be selected until a last page of the file has been displayed. When a file is open, GSview will display the document filename, the current page (if available) and while the cursor is over the image, the location of the cursor in co-ordinates specified by Options | Units. The co-ordinate can be PostScript points (1/72"), millimetres or inches. The cursor location is useful for calculating bounding boxes. °oDV A P€ß€€‚€€€€‚‚€€‚‚€€‚ÿThe Select File command is similar to Open but it does not display the document. This command is useful for opening a document prior to printing it. The Save As command saves a copy of the current document. This is useful if GSview is being used as a PostScript viewer by another application and you wish to save the currently displayed file. The Close command closes the currently open document. This should be used before the current file is changed by another program. If you do not do this and GSview detects that the file length or date have changed, it will close Ghostscript and rescan the document. @¦ – * $€,€€‚ã&Áû‰‚ÿSee also Print. ?V Õ 1w­¦‚ÿÿÿÿÕ ×CPage Selection¬)– @ƒ Ô€S€€€‚‚€€€€€€ãrÁû‰‚‚€€€€€€‚‚€€€€€€‚‚€€€€€€€€‚ÿPage SelectionView | Next Page or the + button moves to the next page of a document.

Orientation is the default page orientation and is either Portrait or Landscape. See the Orientation menu. ;äJNW |€É€€‚€€€€€€€€€€€€€€‚‚€€‚ÿPage Order is either Ascending, Descending or Special. If Page Order is Descending, GSview automatically reverses the pages when displaying or printing so they appear in ascending order. When extracting or printing, GSview can be instructed to print pages in descending (reverse) order. Special means that pages should not be reordered. Default Media gives the media name followed by the width and height of that media in default user co-ordinates (1/72 inch).

There are three methods used by GSview for printing: Windows GDI printer, Ghostscript device or PostScript printer. Windows GDI printer uses Ghostscript to create bitmaps for each page, and prints these using the standard Windows printer driver. This is the slowest print method, but should work with most printers. ½| €Ì„A P€ù€€‚ã&Áû‰‚‚ãq&Áû‰‚‚ã&Áû‰€€‚ÿGhostscript device uses the Ghostscript printer drivers. This is faster, but you need Ghostscript to have a driver for your printer and you need to know what it is called. For example, the HP LaserJet 4 uses ljet4. See the Ghostscript documentation for more details. PostScript printer doesn't use Ghostscript for printing PostScript files. Instead the file is sent directly to the printer. There is a significant amount of interaction between settings on the print dialog. For example, selecting Ghostscript device disables the Properties button because this isn't relevant. More details are in the following topics. ¨‚Ö…b ’€Q€€‚ã4Áû‰ã;Áû‰‚‚ãn%Áû‰‚ãÁ%Áû‰‚ã&Áû‰‚ãq&Áû‰‚ã,Áû‰‚ãÏ,Áû‰‚ã¹3Áû‰ÿSee also Conversions and Convert.

This is similar to File | Print File, except that you can specify which pages to print. When a PostScript printer is connected via a serial port, it sometimes requires a Ctrl+D character to be sent after the PostScript file, and depending on how well behaved other programs are, sometimes before. This is part of the serial communications protocol used by these printers - it is not part of PostScript. The Settings dialog allows you can choose to send Ctrl+D before and/or after the PostScript file. 2í·ÁÂÆE X€Û€€‚‚€€‚€€‚‚€€‚€€‚‚‚‚ÿSome PostScript printers understand multiple languages, and require a prolog to enable the PostScript mode. For example, HP LaserJet printers (with the PostScript option) require the following prolog ^[%-12345X@PJL JOB @PJL ENTER LANGUAGE = POSTSCRIPTand the following epilog ^[%-12345X@PJL EOJ ^[%12345XThe prolog and epilog files allow you to send a file to the printer before and after the PostScript file.

A page offset can be specified for each device. The page offset is useful for correcting a mismatch between the page origin of a Ghostscript printer device and a particular printer. Increasing the X value will translate the image towards the right. Increasing the Y value will usually translate the image downwards.

Changing the value of the BitsPerPixel property on one device does not change it for any other device. When you press the OK button in the Properties dialog box, the current settings are written to the gsview32.ini file. Some Properties are predefined in GSview, but these may not match those available in Ghostscript. The Edit and New buttons allow you to modify available Properties for that device.

To find out which devices support Properties and which Properties are recognised by each device, read the Ghostscript file Devices.htm or look at the Ghostscript source code. There are two ways to add or edit Properties. The first method uses the Edit or New button on the Properties dialog box. Each property must be either a number or a string. Number properties are equivalent to the Ghostscript -d command line option. String properties are equivalent to the Ghostscript -s command line option. Each property consists of a Name and Value. These are used as -dNAME=VALUE or -sNAME=VALUE. The Value is chosen from the comma separated list of Values entered into the Edit Properties dialog box. Spaces must not be embedded in the Name or Values. §T‰8S t€©€€‚ãÏ,Áû‰€€€€€€‚‚‚‚€€€€€€‚ÿTo delete a property, select it on the Properties dialog box, then press Edit, then press the Delete button on the Edit Properties dialog box. The second method is to manually edit the GSview INI file. For each device, you must add two sections to the gsview32.ini file. The following example shows how to add property information for the cdjcolor driver. First add a section which gives the current values. This section, after the first character is removed, gives the options that will appear in the Property list box. The first character is s for string or d for number.

However, many single page PostScript files can be converted to EPS by changing the first line of the file to %!PS-Adobe-3.0 EPSF-3.0and then adding or fixing up the %%BoundingBox comment. EPS files are commonly used for inclusion in other documents and for this reason require the bounding box comment: %%BoundingBox: llx lly urx ury¹‚0‡X ~€s€€‚‚€€‚‚ãrÁû‰€€€€ãrÁû‰ã§Áû‰ãs;Áû‰ãrÁû‰‚ÿwhere llx, lly, urx and ury are integers giving the x and y co-ordinates of the lower left and upper right corners of a bounding box which encloses all marks made on the page. When used incorrectly, the PS to EPS command can produce PostScript files with incorrect DSC comments. Such a document will cause problems when you try to include it inside another document. To convert a PostScript file to EPS, the original file must be a single page document. If the document contains DSC comments and is multi page, extract the desired page with File | Extract. If the document does not contain DSC comments, you will need to edit the file by hand to extract the desired page. »„H‰] ˆ€w€€‚ãrÁû‰€€‚€€‚€€‚€€‚€€‚€€‚€€‚‚‚ÿEPS documents must not use any of the following operators: banddevice clear cleardictstack copypage erasepage exitserver framedevice grestoreall initclip initgraphics initmatrix quit renderbands setglobal setpagedevice setpageparams setshared startjob letter note legal a3 a4 a5The following operators should be used with care: ]0‡¥‹\ †€€€€‚€€‚‚€€‚‚ãýglI‰ãÍ}lI‰ã§Áû‰ã§Áû‰ã§Áû‰ãÿ–mI‰‚ÿ nulldevice setgstate sethalftone setmatrix setscreen settransfer setcolortransferIt is your responsibility to make sure that the above requirements are met. To test if a document contains any of the above operators, select Options | EPS Warn and then Open the desired document. After the page has been displayed, Close the document and then display the Ghostscript messages with File | Show Messages. If any of the above operators have been used you should see lines like: EÛH‰êj ¢€·€€€‚€€€€ãÍ}lI‰‚‚€€‚‚ãrÁû‰€€ãrÁû‰ãrÁû‰‚‚ãrÁû‰€€‚ÿ Warning: EPS files must not use ...If you find these warnings then do not use PS to EPS. Remember to turn off EPS Warn afterwards. A document must be displayed before PS to EPS is used. For documents without DSC comments, PS to EPS allows a bounding box to be specified, then writes out an EPS file consisting of an EPS wrapper around the original document. For documents with DSC comments, PS to EPS will change the first line of the file to ›7¥‹‘Àd –€o€€€‚€€‚‚ãrÁû‰€€€€‚‚€€€€€€ãrÁû‰‚‚€€‚ÿ %!PS-Adobe-3.0 EPSF-3.0then allows the %%BoundingBox comment to be changed or added. For EPS documents, PS to EPS allows the %%BoundingBox comment to be changed. PS to EPS does not clip the document to the %%BoundingBox. To do so would require changing the PostScript code itself. PS to EPS only changes the DSC comments. If Automatically calculate Bounding Box is checked, GSview will calculate the boundiê‘Àãng box from the non white pixels.

Open an EPS file that does not contain a preview. 6. Select Edit | Add EPS Preview, then the preview format, then the new EPS filename. GSview will write a new file containing the original PostScript EPS file and a preview created from the display bitmap. The available preview formats are Interchange, TIFF 4, TIFF 6 uncompressed, TIFF 6 packbits and Windows Metafile. If adding an Interchange preview, the document must have an %%EndComments line, otherwise GSview may put the preview in the wrong place. An interchange preview is always monochrome. A TIFF 4 preview is a Baseline Bilevel Image (1 bit/pixel) with no compression as described in the TIFF 6.0 memorandum, but avoiding tags which are not described in the TIFF 4 specification. WordPerfect 5.1 requires a TIFF 4 preview. A TIFF 6 preview is a Baseline Bilevel Image, or a Baseline Palette-colour Image (4 or 8 bits/pixel) or a Baseline RGB Full Colour Image (24 bits/pixel) according to the TIFF 6.0 specification. TIFF 6 previews are either uncompressed or compressed with packbits. A Windows Metafile preview contains an uncompressed bitmap. ‰®ÄîËk ¤€=€€‚ãS~lI‰ãS~lI‰€€ã`„lI‰‚‚ã§Áû‰ã§Áû‰€€€€€€€€‚‚ãž;Áû‰‚ÿ7.

You will need to download it separately from the pstoedit homepage http://www.pstoedit.net/pstoeditor from http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/gsview/pstoedit.htmTo use pstoedit from within GSview, use Edit | Convert to vector format. Three dialog boxes will be shown. XpÏ= H€7€€‚‚‚€€‚‚€€‚‚€€‚ÿThe first dialog is for pstoedit settings. Select an output Format. Draw text as polygons should be selected if the PostScript file contains text and the output format does not support this, e.g. gnuplot. This might produce a large output file. When Map to ISO-Latin1 is selected, pstoedit maps all character codes to the ones defined by the ISO-Latin1 encoding, which is used by HTML and MS-Windows. This is the default. If you uncheck this item, the encoding from the input PostScript is passed unchanged to the output. Ø¥Åõ3 4€K€€‚€€‚‚€€‚ÿIf the output format does not support curves in the way PostScript does, all curves are approximated by lines. The Flatness option is used to control this approximation. This parameter is directly converted to a PostScript setflat command. Small values produce a more accurate approximation, but more line segments. Sometimes fonts embedded in a PostScript program do not have a fontname. For example, this happens in PostScript files generated by dvips. In such a case pstoedit uses a replacement font. The default for this is Courier. Another font can be specified using the Default Font option. Some alternative font names are Courier, Helvetica and Times-Roman. SH = H€-€€‚€€‚‚‚‚‚‚€€ã4Áû‰‚ÿSome of the output formats support extra options. See the pstoedit manual for more details. For example, the java output format uses Driver Options to specify the name of the java class. The second dialog (omitted if no page numbering is available) specifies the page to be converted, or if supported by the output format, a range of pages to be converted. The third dialog specifies the output file name. Not all pstoedit formats support bitmap graphics.

FH  1Œz !ÿÿÿÿ × Text Extract and Find!óÄ + . *€ç€€€‚‚€‚‚‚ÿText Extract and FindIn general, extracting text from a PostScript document is not a trivial operation. Words may be broken. Text may be encoded. Ligatures may be used (e.g. replacing 'fi' with a single character). There may be no relationship between the location of a word in the PostScript file and its location on the page. Success in extracting text from a PostScript document depends greatly on the document itself. GSview has two methods of extracting text from a PostScript file. ¬a × K d€Ã€€‚‚‚‚‚ãýglI‰ãŒolI‰‚‚ã4Áû‰‚‚ãÈalI‰‚ã“`lI‰ÿThe quick method extracts all text from PostScript strings.

Paste To copies a Device Independent Bitmap from the Clipboard (if available) to a BMP file. Convert Bitmap converts between a Device Independent Bitmap and a Device Dependent Bitmap. If the clipboard contains a Device Independent Bitmap (BMP format), this is converted to a Device Dependent Bitmap and added to the clipboard. If the clipboard does not contain a colour palette, one is created from the Device Independent Bitmap and added to the clipboard.

The PStoText Text Extract and Find method uses the external pstotext tool and Ghostscript to extract words and their co-ordinates. This method is more accurate, but there may be a long pause while pstotext and Ghostscript do the initial processing. After this, text extraction and searching should be quick.

GSview requires the Ghostscript DLL (gsdll2.dll for OS/2, gsdll32.dll for Win32). This error message usually occurs if you don't have Ghostscript, or if GSview can't find Ghostscript. From the GSview menu select Options | Advanced Configure and enter the correct Ghostscript DLL path. For example c:\gs\gsN.NN\bin\gsdll32.dllThis message also occurs if Ghostscript cannot find its initialisation files (e.g. gs_init.ps). Set the Ghostscript Include Path correctly. ,ï‡O6„= H€ß€€‚‚‚‚‚€€€€‚‚ãOhlI‰‚ÿIf using Win32s, make sure you don't already have a copy of the Ghostscript DLL loaded by another copy of GSview. Only one copy of Ghostscript DLL can be loaded by Win32s at a time. If you can't get GSview to run Ghostscript DLL correctly, make sure you can configure and run Ghostscript on its own.

Set the Ghostscript Include Path to point to the directory containing the correct gs_init.ps. Don't try to display a PostScript file in the directory of an old version of Ghostscript (which will cause the old gs_init.ps to be loaded irrespective of the Ghostscript Include Path). Problem: Ghostscript Messages window says Wrong version of DLL found. Found version XXX Need version YYY. Œ6„Šq °€7€€‚‚‚€€‚‚€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€‚ÿGSview found the wrong Ghostscript DLL. Install the required version of the Ghostscript DLL. Make sure you have only one copy of the Ghostscript DLL on your system. Problem: GSview says that a multipage PostScript file produced by MS-Windows contains 0 pages and will only show the first page. This is because the document does not have correct DSC comments. From the Control Panel, select Printers, Options..., then in the Print to group box click on the Printer radio button. You cannot use the Print To Encapsulated PostScript File for printing multipage files. The correct method is to connect the printer to FILE:. In addition, from the Control Panel select Printers, Options..., Advanced and then check Conform to Adobe Document Structuring Convention. ׎†4ŒC T€¯€€‚€€€€€€€€€€‚ÿThe DSC comment %%Pages: 0 means that the document does not produce any pages. That is, the PostScript showpage operator is not used. If you find a PostScript document that has multiple pages and contains the %%Pages: 0 comment, change the first line from %!PS-Adobe- to %!. GSview will then ignore the DSC comments and allow you to view all pages, but only in the original order. Complain to the author of the program that produced that PostScript file. f-ŠšŽ9 @€[€€‚€€€€‚‚€€‚ÿSome PostScript printer drivers include code that is specific to a particular printer. The PostScript output from these drivers may be unportable and may not display in GSview. If you are having this problem, try using a reasonably generic PostScript driver such as Apple LaserWriter II NT for PostScript level 2 printers, or Apple LaserWriter Plus for PostScript level 1 printers. For Windows 95, open the printer properties then select the PostScript tab, then select PostScript Output Format = PostScript (optimize for portability - ADSC). Õš4Œ{Á; D€5€€‚€€‚‚€€‚‚€€‚ÿProblem: GSview says "Page ordering is Special..." Your document used the DSC comment %%PageOrder: Special which means that pages can not be reliably reordered. This may prevent GSview from displaying pages in any order other than the original order. If you continue and reorder the pages, šŽ{ÁGOPostScript errors may occur. The only way to fix this is to regenerate the PostScript without special page ordering. By default, Windows 95 creates PostScript files which use special page ordering. To disable this, open the printer properties then select the PostScript tab, then select PostScript Output Format = PostScript (optimize for portability - ADSC). 8ýšŽ³Ã; D€û€€‚€€‚‚‚‚€€€€‚ÿProblem: PostScript files produced by MS-Windows start with a Control-D. For Windows 3.1: Since this occurs even when the PostScript printer Conform to Document Structuring Convention checkbox is checked, this must be considered a bug in the MS-Windows PostScript printer driver. The bug fix is documented in the MS-Windows PRINTERS.WRI file. Edit the win.ini file and search for the PostScript printer section. There may be more than one. In each of these sections add CTRLD=0 as shown below. V{Á Æ@ N€-€€‚€€‚€€‚‚‚‚‚‚€€‚‚‚ÿ [Apple LaserWriter II NT,FILE] CTRLD=0For Windows 95: The PostScript printer driver setup has an option (Properties, PostScript, Advanced) for suppressing a ^D at the start of a document. Fortunately the default is do not send ^D before job. Problem: PostScript files produced by Word for Windows 6.0 cause a "Missing %%Pages comment" message box. Congratulations. You have just found a mistake in the DSC comments when Word included an EPS file. Word should have surrounded the included EPS file with the lines سÃ$ÈC T€±€€€‚€€‚‚‚‚‚‚‚ãýglI‰ãý}lI‰‚‚‚ÿ %%BeginDocument: filename.eps %%EndDocumentBecause Word didn't do this, GSview can't tell how many pages are in the document and where they are located. Please complain to Microsoft. There is a problem in the EPSIMP.FLT filter version 2.01 which Microsoft needs to fix. In the interim, you have two solutions: 1. Select Options | Ignore DSC 2. Edit the PostScript file to correct the DSC comments. Search the PostScript file for all lines containing a Æ…ÊR r€€€€‚‚€€‚‚€€‚‚‚€€‚‚€€‚‚‚‚€€‚ÿ %MSEPS PreambleFrom each of these lines, search forward for the start of the included EPS file which should start with a line like %!PS-Adobe-3.0 EPSF-3.0Above these lines add the line %%BeginDocument: AddedByHandThen search for all lines containing %MSEPS TrailerAbove these lines add the line %%EndDocumentGSview should then be able to display the file correctly.
