I couldn't run PostScriptTrace() from the package "grImport" without an error. At first the postscript program couldn't be found. however the problem persisted after the full path the postscript program was indicated. I read earlier post on the subject in vain. See the codes and output below. The file "Senegal_location_map.ps" was originally a "svg" file from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Senegal_location_map.svg It was saved as "ps" file from Inkscape. Thank you for any assistance Modou > library(grImport) Loading required package: grid Loading required package: XML > Sys.setenv(R_GSCMD="C:/Program Files/gs/gs9.05/bin/gswin64c.exe") > PostScriptTrace("Senegal_location_map.ps", charpath=F) Error in PostScriptTrace("Senegal_location_map.ps", charpath = F) : status 127 in running command 'C:/Program Files/gs/gs9.05/bin/gswin64c.exe -q -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=pswrite -sOutputFile= C:\Users\heman\AppData\Local\Temp\Rtmp2duW3P\filefd01d981ff7 -sstdout=Senegal_location_map2.ps.xml captureSenegal_location_map.ps' > traceback() 2: stop(gettextf("status %d in running command '%s'", ret, cmd), domain = NA) 1: PostScriptTrace("Senegal_location_map.ps", charpath = F) > sessionInfo() R version 2.15.0 (2012-03-30) Platform: x86_64-pc-mingw32/x64 (64-bit)
