ps2pdf : Unrecoverable error

[Vijay Panicker]

Good Day,

I got this mail ID from one of the sites discussing about ghostscript.

I'm new to ghostscript and have installed it in my unix system two days back.

But while using ps2pdf, I get the error pasted at the bottom of this mail.

I was able to convert my PS file via PDF Creator manually. But this error seems to be coming while using ps2pdf. My PS File is having both read and write access.

Can you please help me. Had gone through several sites, but couldn't find anything related to this error. Please let me know if you need more details.

Any help is really appreciated.

Hi Vijay,

The output of the command:
gs --version
would be helpful. If you're using a binary package (say redhat or
debian package) it would be good to know which one with version.

Also, this is only the mailing list for GNU's "GPL version" of
ghostscript which is a fork.

The Artifex mailing list for the latest Affero ghostscript is:
gs-...@ghostscript.com
The web page for the mailing lists is here:
https://ghostscript.com/mailman/listinfo/

Thanks,
Robert
