Re: PS error in GSView

[Mats Bengtsson]

That's really weird. I notice you have a brand new version of
Ghostscript, could it be a bug in that? BeginPaperSize should
be a standard construct as far as I know. I'd look for more
information at www.ghostscript.com.

Anyway, the problem is not at all related to Lilypond. The lines
are generated based on the teTeX configuration file
/usr/share/texmf/dvips/config/config.ps (or wherever teTeX is
installed on your system) for dvips.
