Aladdin Ghostscript 6.50 for Amiga
I have compiled Aladdin Ghostscript 6.50 for Amiga. You can download it from my
homepage (title link), I will upload it to the Aminet in the next days. There
is a 68k- and a PPC-version available. The PPC-version needs the latest WarpOS
version (5.0)
With Ghostscript you can convert and print Postscript and PDF files. Most interesting
is may be the fact that you can convert Postscript files from Pagestream or FinalWriter
to PDF, like the Adobe Distiller, Ghostscript 6.50 is the first Amiga program that
can handle embedded fonts (PageStream does not (yet!) support font embedding, and
5.10 converts fonts to graphics, which results in huge PDF files in poor quality.)
An archive with sources is available, too, but I created Ghostscript with the
StormC-Compiler and not with GeekGadgets. This means there are no Amiga-makefiles
but only StormC-projects. If you want to recompile please make sure to read
the !!!Source.readme in the archive.
