compile pstricks: ps2pdf doesn't work


ps2pdf -dEPSCrop stops short with pstricks uputWhy OSX Texstudio cannot compile this?Setting up TeXstudio to run LaTeX + dvips + ps2pdfpstricks with old latex-dvips-ps2pdf worked; fails with 2014 TeXLive xelatexMy PSTricks is broken: empty output from pst-vowel exampleRunning PSTricks image on TeXShopPSTricks drawing not cropped in standalonepstricks, auto-pst-pdf and arXivpgf's and pstricks's opacity is not workingUsing EPS files with TexStudio

I would like to revisit an old question, namely how to compile pstricks code properly. I tried to use the dvi-ps-pdf chain with the latex compiler within texstudio but it failed because ps2pdf seems to get stuck. I am using the latest version of MacOS (Mojave) as well as TeXStudio with TeXLive.



I also tried to compile with XeLaTeX and to use shell escape with pdflatex but both didn't work either.



I would be grateful for any suggestions!

    "seems to get stuck" doesn't give enough information for anyone to help. What error did you get?

  • @DavidCarlisle I am not receiving a particular error, rather nothing happens at all. The system keeps running for a long time and I terminated the compiling after a few minutes.

  • @HerbSchulz No, actually not. Should I install it?

  • which loops ps2pdf or latex? ps2pdf is just a wrapper around ghostscript it shouldn't hang if you don't have gs installed., You could post a small complete document and then we can check if there are any postscript errors. You could write a postscript loop in pstricks that would hang a postscript interpreter , so it could be a postscript error in your pstricks input....
