[l2h] TMP strikes again! TMP folder blues with latex2html on windows

Sun Apr 11 23:59:48 CEST 2010

Hi Les;

Here is the output from running one of the commands on its own. I get the 
same error as that when running inside l2h:

I copied the command and run it directly.  Here is the DOS window screen 
output.

=== command ========
G:\LATEX\perl\bin\perl.exe G:\LATEX\latex2html\bin\pstoimg.bat -type 
png -debug -tmp G:\LATEX\TMP\l2h2228 -discard -interlace -antialias -depth 
1 -scale 1.6 -geometry 417x36 -margins 58,72 -crop abls -transparent -out 
img32.png G:\LATEX\TMP\l2h2228\image032.ps

=== output ====

pstoimg.bat V2008 (Revision 1.19, Perl 5.010001)

But when I check in the TMP folder, I do NOT see p548.t01:

=========== check ==============
G:\LATEX\TMP\l2h1128>dir image032.ps

04/11/2010  11:42 AM           108,629 image032.ps

               0 Dir(s)  152,626,229,248 bytes free

G:\LATEX\TMP\l2h1128>dir *.t01

File Not Found

G:\LATEX\TMP\l2h1128>dir p548*

File Not Found

==============================
So it looks like gswin32c.exe  or pstoimag.bat is having some problem?

Again, I think I have the same setup on the laptop as I have on mydesk. But 
it seems may be I do not. Becuase I made sure all the setups are the same, 
according to this layout here:

http://12000.org/my_notes/l2hwin/index.htm

Same software versions on laptop as the desktop, same env,. variables. But 
there must be something not the same ofcourse, and that is what I am trying 
to find out.   Notice that I use G:\ drive and not C:\ drive where I install 
everything. Since I had problems before when I install software on C:\ and 
my data was on another drive. (This is one of the reasons I want to move to 
Linux from windows).

If you you need more info, please let me know. Meanwhile, I'll update the 
list if I find what is wrong myself.

thanks

Why not use some of the pnm tools directly from command line to make
sure they are working correctly.

In fact, if you have a source file try doing the same commands, if possible.
