Re: tlug: tex/dvips to pdf: dekiru?

Dekirujan!

I can print. Thanks to all of those who gave advice.

(Only, I'm not exactly sure what caused it. So much for the
scientific method of eliminating one variable at a time. )

Upgraded to ghostscript 6.0 without a hitch (thanks Stephen, your
instructions were clear and helpful), and now ps2pdf works like a
champ.

Strangely, so does pdflatex all of a sudden, even though I didn't
touch my tex distribution. Hmmm. I must have done something wrong
yesterday when I tried that. The pdflatex method also seems to
generate slightly smaller files, but I can't tell the difference in
print quality.

Don't know how it works, but it does, so I guess that's good. Thanks.

font information from)
