[pstricks] PSTricks Digest, Vol 103, Issue 22 - tranparency

[Jon Joseph]

Doris: On your mac open a terminal window and go to /usr/texbin (cd /usr/texbin)
I use vi but find some way to edit simpdftex. Go to line 167 - if your file is different you are looking for the line with
distillerprog="ps2pdf"

Edit this line to read 

 	distillerprog="ps2pdf14"

Transparency should be on.

Alternatively, cd to /usr/local/bin and cp ps2pdf14 to ps2pdf - that will also work.  You might want to make a backup of ps2pdf before you overwrite it.
