Versions/Setup (sorry forgot...)
X1000 running update6 and used live updater c couple of days ago
AmiGS is 1.16
Postscriptfile(s)
I checked several Postscript files, rechecked it, using a PagesStream PS file. I always used build in PS (file) drivers for printing.
I did not print via Workbench Postscript Drivers and print2file device !:
Finalwriter Testfile:
http://www.geobiz.de/AmiGS/A4-FW.ps
Pages Stream:
http://www.geobiz.de/AmiGS/A4-PGS.ps
Word:
http://www.geobiz.de/AmiGS/A4-WORD.ps
sending a PS file directly to the printer
works fine, nevertheless I do need a pdf Version of the file. Which gets normally printed. pdf Version is then also "letter"
sending a pdf file from AmiPDF to the printer
As the workflow is as stated:
FinalWriter -> Postscriptfile -> AmiGS creates pdf file -> AmiPDF
AmiPDF cannot print it either, as AmiGS already made "letter" format out of it.
Printing a A4 pdf file (generated with Ghostview on my PC) through AmiPDF works fine !
@nbache
so I am
not using AmiGS to print a pdf ! I am using AmiGS to create a pdf.
carry on...
During testing, some more things became clear. It must be a bug inside AmiGS. But
MichaelMerkels AmiGS behaves different as it displays an A4 Postscript as "A4", in my case the top of my document gets cut off once you load it into AmiGS. It also displays "letter" no matter what file you use!
The same file printed via copy ... par: or displayed in Ghostview on PC, is fine. Concluding: You cannot print Postscript files from my version of AmiGS!
.
Thanx to all Betatesters for kicking in here....
@MichaelMerkel
Maybe it would help, If I test your Postscriptfile in order to confirm whether it show A4 or not !
