Friends,
I'm using GRASS 70-svn on Arch linux to generate figures for a
report. The general process is
1) GRASS - d.out.file format=png
2) xfig - import the PNG file, annotate, and export as PDF
3) TeX - import the file in a dvipdfm \special
However, I'm now having problems with non-functional PNG files from
d.out.file. Just below is a paste from my console. You can't see the
error from inside xfig, but the line just below "xfig" is the stderr
output from attempting to import demo_png.png.
***********************************************************************
GRASS 7.0.svn > d.out.file out=demo_png.png format=png size=800,600
Mapset <final> in Location <beartooth>
GRASS 7.0.svn > xfig
Warning: translation table syntax error: Missing '(' while parsing
action sequence
'arning: ... found while parsing ':~Ctrl<Key>1: insert-string(1)
Warning: String to TranslationTable conversion encountered errors
libpng error: invalid file gamma in png_set_gamma
***********************************************************************
The resulting PNG file will import into Imagemagick OK, and can then
be exported back out as a PNG file which xfig will accept, so there is a
work around, but maybe this is easily fixed? I've had a look at Anna's
python script but haven't gone into the imported modules.
Thanks, Dave
