))Ditto.  Vista.  Possibly a problem with which fonts are installed?

I have tried this on a different windows 7 machine with 2.13.52

Same error

Only when \sans is used

i.e.

{c1^ markup { \sans "hello"} 

 is used.

Does anyone understand the error?

Could it be permission related for instance?

I don't think I have an older version of LP but I seem to remember being able 
to use 2.13.20-something.

I also remember some GS changes were made or something related to stop the CMD 
window popping up. Could this be related?
