[pstricks] Problems with Pstricks and WinEdt

My previous explanation regarding the use of WinEdt to convert a *.dvi
to a *.pdf was not intended to mean that WinEdt is the only answer.  It
was specific to how WinEdt can be used because that was the referenced
package for the problem.

It is certainly not true that you need Win Edit. Of course you can
run dvips alone (I have a TeXLive standard installation on XP) and
can run e.g. "dvips main" without any problems in a "prompt window".
That would produce "main.ps".

Then to get a pdf version from your ps-file: Try FreePDF
(http://freepdf-xp.en.softonic.com/). It is very easy, allows high
resolutions (mine has 2540dpi now) and "prepress" (whatever that
means). Also - publishers insist - it can embed all fonts (even the
standard ones).  It handled cases where other (commercial) programs
stopped. And it is free!

Ghostscript must be installed on your computer.

Message-ID: <4AF4C599.3000803 at gmail.com>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed

hi all,

here is my code:

\psset{yunit=10cm,xunit=1.5}
\begin{pspicture}(-3,-0.2)(3,0.5)
\pscustom[fillstyle=solid,fillcolor=ocre!30]{
\psGauss[sigma=1,mue=0,linecolor=black, linewidth=0pt]{-2.75}{2.75}}
\psGauss[sigma=1,mue=0,linecolor=black, linewidth=1.5pt]{-2.75}{2.75}
\psaxes[Dx=1,Dy=0.1,tickstyle=top,labelsep=1pt](0,0)(-3,0)(3,0.5)
\def\psvlabel#1{\small\textcolor{ocre}{#1}}
\psset{yunit=0.5}
\psaxes
[Dy=0.1,Oy=0,ticks=y,labels=y,tickstyle=bottom,ylabelPos=right,axesstyle=frame,labelsep=1pt]{-}(3,0)(-3,1.0001)

\psGaussI
[sigma=1,mue=0,linewidth=1.5pt,yunit=2.5,Simpson=20,linecolor=ocre]{-2.75}{2.75}%

\end{pspicture}

which is a correct picture but the yunit=2.5 in  the options pf
\psGaussI should be yunit=1, correct ?

Thank you,

Mathias

this is set globally to 10cm absolute

there is no need here for \pscustom, you can fill the
\psGauss

this is set globally, but relative to the current unit of 10cm

> \psaxes
[Dy=0.1,Oy=0,ticks=y,labels=y,tickstyle=bottom,ylabelPos=right,axesstyle=frame,labelsep=1pt]{-}(3,0)(-3,1.0001)

so the correct value to get the old absolute 10cm is yunit=2 (relative)
or yunit=10cm (absolute).

this is a problem of tikz not pstricks or pst-pdf
