Hi,
I'm trying to set up PSTricks using MiKTeX 2.8 on Windows 7. I have studied the page
http://tug.org/PSTricks/main.cgi?file=pdf/pdfoutput
and have tried four ways of PDF export, but have had trouble with all four of them.
Ps2pdf: Creating the pdf file was easy, but the link to the pdf2eps script was bad. I found another shell script online, but is there a simple way to do this with MiKTeX? Or should I install Cygwin?
Pst-pdf: ps2pdf -dAutoRotatePages=/None <file-pics.ps> <file-pics.pdf> did not work for me. A GhostScript window came up, but no file was created.
Auto-pst-pdf: I got a long log file. The first error simply says "Creation of test-auto-pst-pdf-pics.pdf failed."
Pdftricks: I got an error saying
(pdftricks) No \write 18 capability.
(pdftricks) You'll have to run a script by yourself!
I executed pdflatex --enable-write18, but maybe some internal calls did not enable write 18.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
