Yup. Nothing but something cryptic about transparent. >But if I had to guess, I suspect you have an unsupported device >(sDEVICE=png16m), which is a pretty detailed png (24 bit). You running >24bit graphics or 16bit? The same thing happens with gif and jpeg. I compared the devicenames on SuSE's against a Caldera 3.1.1 workstation install, and the openpkg install of ghostscript, and SuSE's pretty much a superset of either of them. The wierd thing is that I can export properly from xfig under Caldera 3.1.1. Bill -- INTERNET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Bill Campbell; Celestial Software LLC UUCP: camco!bill PO Box 820; 6641 E.
