the problem seems to be font related. for eg. when i try to do an epstopdf on the attached file, i get $ epstopdf /tmp/clock-freq.eps Error: /invalidfont in /findfont Operand stack: Symbol-Oblique Symbol Execution stack: %interp_exit .runexec2 --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- 2 %stopped_push --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- false 1 %stopped_push 1905 1 3 %oparray_pop 1904 1 3 %oparray_pop --nostringval-- 1888 1 3 %oparray_pop 1771 1 3 %oparray_pop --nostringval-- %errorexec_pop .runexec2 --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- 2 %stopped_push --nostringval-- 1863 2 4 %oparray_pop Dictionary stack: --dict:1149/1684(ro)(G)-- --dict:0/20(G)-- --dict:75/200(L)-- --dict:169/256(L)-- Current allocation mode is local Last OS error: 2 GPL Ghostscript 8.63: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1 now, when i run the same on the f9 machine that doesn't have this problem, it converts it to pdf just fine. on further investigation, i found that everything in my /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1/ was missing. can't gv or evince be more verbose when they fail? the unix philosophy has always been to be silent when everything goes fine and fail as noisily as possible when failing. is there some way these files were deleted automatically, besides a file system thrash?

Perhaps the warnings were saved in the log files in your case. |
Created attachment 334947 [details] A sample EPS file Description of problem: After some recent yum updates, I'm unable to view a postscript file using any of the tools available (gv, evince). I've tried postscript files generated using latex/dvips as well as those generated directly from gnuplot. Having used latex and authoring/publishing tools on Linux for more than 9 years, this instability has shocked me. With gv, all pages are displayed blank (the right number of pages are displayed though). With evince, it is stuck in loading. On another f9 machine with the same version of gv, I don't have a problem. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xorg-x11-fonts-*-7.2-6.fc9 gv-3.6.3-3.fc9 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open a postscript or an encapsulated postscript file using gv or evince. I've attached a sample one. Actual results: All pages are displayed blank. Expected results: Additional info: I have attached a sample eps file.
