ghost script -- what is it?

janrif · Post by **janrif** » Mon Dec 03, 2007 6:13 pm

Hello, Newbie here.

Searched database for topic but un-found.

When I dbl click a file w pdf ext I get msg cannot find ghost script & there is no association between pdf & pdfXviewer despite of the fact that pdf is associated with the viewer in settings | folder | file type.

However if I run viewer first, I can drag/drop pdf file onto viewer & it displays & works as expected.

Can someone help me with this mystery.

Thank you.

Looks like you have installed ghostview, and had associate PDF files.

The only thing I installed was the pdfexchanger. The problem is solved I discovered by adding edit, view, print, etc to file type association advanced. Thanks anyway.

For the record ...

PDF-XChange is not related to nor does it use any Ghostscript elements - PDF-XChange is 100% independant of any 3rdparty tools (such as ghostscript) other than small portions of a JPEG2000 library licensed from a 3rdparty and obviously Windows itself.
