Hi,
I wonder if anyone has the same problem:
I saved (and print to file) an HTML file to a postscript file, I can
view it in ghostview, no problem, and I can print it.
Whenever I process that ps file by mpage (tried 2up, 4up, and 8up),
using ghostview, I can view all the pages with no problem except the last
one, the hourglass will just stay there and I'll have to do the "stop
interpreter" in the file menu. When I try to print, no output, it's being
sent to lpr (it's on the queue, but it disappear in a short while).
Printing pages before the last page works fine though.
I have tried ghostscript-3.33-3.i386.rpm with
ghostscript-fonts-4.0-2.i386.rpm, and
ghostscript-4.03-1.i386.rpm with ghostscript-fonts-4.03-1.i386.rpm, but
got the same problem.
Then I tried saving (printing to file) ps file using Grail and Mosaic, I
got no problem viewing or printing even after processed by mpage.
I tried netscape 1.12, 2.02, 3.0, 3.01, 3.0 gold, all give me the same
problem. I also tried many different parameters with mpage, to no avail.
My printer is a HP4L (but that should not be the problem).
I have lots of pages that needed to be printed out, and the ps output from
netscape is desired.
Anyone has a clue what's wrong?
Thanks very much in advance.
Ambrose.
