A used the Linux installer to install 2.8.3 over my existing self-compiled 2.7.28 (without uninstalling first...). I don't seem to have problems with very big PDF files, but I now have problems with lilypond-book when I use 'psbook' on the ps file. This Linux program rearranges the order of the pages to make it easy to create a booklet. When I try to view the resulting ps (or try to covert to PDF) it gives the error message: Error: /rangecheck in --get-- Operand stack: names --nostringval-- 1 9731 --nostringval-- 51 Execution stack: %interp_exit .runexec2 --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- 2 %stopped_push --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- false 1 %stopped_push 1 3 %oparray_pop 1 3 %oparray_pop 1 3 %oparray_pop 1 3 %oparray_pop .runexec2 --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- 2 %stopped_push --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- Dictionary stack: --dict:1115/1686(ro)(G)-- --dict:0/20(G)-- --dict:81/200(L)-- --dict:53/72(ro)(G)-- --dict:10/30(L)-- Current allocation mode is local Last OS error: 2 ESP Ghostscript 815.00: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1 This didn't give me problems when I used 2.7.28. Could this have something to do with the mix of gs versions (LP uses 8.53 and I have 8.15 on my system)?
