Let's suppose that the command-line utility gs is found in /usr/local/bin. (This is what happened after I installed a nicely packaged TeX on Mac OS X 10.5.) You need to add /usr/local/bin to your PATH. The pitfall is that you need to add it, not to the PATH of commands launched using a terminal, but to the PATH of applications started by double-clicking on their icons. You need to create ~/.MacOSX/environment.plist to specify such PATH. See attached DOTMacOSX_environment.plist. After doing this, the imagetoolkits.incl supplied in the add-on called "A sample customize.xxe" should run out of the box. See attached screenshot. --- PS: Note that as of v4.1, the user preferences directory is ~/Library/Application Support/XMLmind/XMLEditor4/ on the Mac.
