My favorite use of ghost script is to combine PDF's. I upgraded Cygwin this weekend, and ghost script fails to perform this task
I am running this: Cygwin Setup version 2.904 (64 bit) base-cygwin 3.8-1 ghostscript 9.52-1 ghostscript-fonts-other 6.0-1 Windows 10 Pro version 1909 build 18363.836 When I run the script: $ gs -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -sOutputFile=combine.pdf able.pdf baker.pdf charly.pdf > GPL Ghostscript 9.52 (2020-03-19) Copyright (C) 2020 Artifex Software, Inc.
