Do you use Potato, Woody or Sid? The problem seems to be, that Ghostscript with versions < 6.5 seems to be broken with respect to PDF generation (ps-to-pdf converters are usually scripts that call Ghostscript to do the work). Rumours go that version 7.0 is whacky. So, you need Ghostscript version 6.5, if you want to do ps-->PDF. In Debian, this is only available in Sid. So, if you want to do ps-->PDF, You have either to run Sid, or to compile Ghostscript 6.5 by yourself. > In particular, if the > documents were originally written in TeX/LaTeX, there is a program called > "pdflatex" that converts LaTeX documents into PDF, and has always worked > correctly in my experience. How do you include pictures in your PDF documents? PDFlatex wants pictures in PDF format, and these are hard to generate if the ps-to-PDF converter is broken Regards, Paul Huygen
