I have a generated postscript file (from trueprint) that I need to get into a usable form on Windows, so I can view it and print it. I've tried both "ps2pdf" and "gs", with no success so far.
I first tried using "ps2pdf". This fails with: --------------- % ps2pdf tp.ps tp.pdf GPL Ghostscript 8.62: **** Could not open temporary file /c/DOCUME~1/User/LOCALS~1/Temp/gs_dwvfJL **** Unable to open the initial device, quitting. --------------- It isn't an obvious permissions problem, because I can "touch" that file with no problem. I then tried just "gs tp.ps", and that fails with this: ------------------ % gs tp.ps GPL Ghostscript 8.62 (2008-02-29) Copyright (C) 2008 Artifex Software, Inc. All rights reserved.
