Re: ps, pdf viewer
Rich Morin Personally to read .pdf files from the screen I really like the acroread package. Unfortunately I couldn't get it to print, but gv worked like a charm. I can't say exactly why, but the fonts are much cleaner, and readable in acroread, for me anyways. Just a wild guess: have you ever checked the Antialias option in the File-Options menu in gv? This can greatly enhance readability. It however also screwed up some files I made with xfig, not showing the proper thickness of certain lines. On a side track, I really like xfig's functionality for making simple drawings, or putting multiple eps files together with some additional text. However, every version I have seen seems to behave flakey in a different way, e.g., the version I have now cannot properly display eps files produced by itself! Any other xfig userss out there with hints and tricks? Eric Meijer -- E.L.

Re: ps, pdf viewer
Well, I did install GV and it does look good!
GV says it can display PDF if GS is ver 4 or better.
Debian does not have GS v4, its still at 3 something...
Time for an updated GS package!? :)
I believe somebody else already told you you were wrong there.
But if you want a not-so-good, but much faster pdf viewer
than gv+gs-aladdin, you may want to try xpdf.

From reading the descriptions, GV looks better.
Far better.

ps, pdf viewer
Can someone suggest a good PS or PDF viewer. Debian has the GhostView and GV packages, but which does everyone like ? From reading the descriptions, GV looks better.
