I am working on a Solaris 7 box and have built a2ps version 4.10.4 without error. My steps were: 1)Download tar file from website 2)Extract all the files 3)Ran configure as follows => configure --prefix=/opt/a2ps --exec-prefix=/opt/a2ps 4) Then did a make which was successful 5) Did a make install which correctly placed everything in the directory /opt/a2ps. The problem however is that when the application is run as part of a program that first converts an ascii file to postscript using a2ps and then runs it through ghostscript to convert that output to PDF, the output from a2ps is not in A4 format but in a format which is the same length as A4 but only half the width. The value assigned to medium in a2ps_cfg at the start was definitely A4. So the report is displayed nromally up to the center of the page and then wraps round to the next line. So far I have found no reason for this. I have attached the a2ps.cfg file created by the build and the output from my program - both the a2ps output and the final PDF output so you can see what it looks like using Adobe or whatever PDF reader. Filenames: text.fil = the original text file pscript.fil = postscript output from a2ps PDF.pdf = final PDF output from running a2ps output through ghostscript. a2ps.cfg = current configuration file If this problem has been encountered before please let me know as it's important that I can resolve it. Many thanks Sam Laming <<pscript.fil>> <<PDF.pdf.pdf>> <<a2ps.cfg>> <<text.fil>> ********************************************************************** This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
