GSview has some extremely useful functions. For those +unfamiliar with the program, it provides an easy to use “front end” to +Ghostscript, as well as <code>pstoedit</code> for converting bitmaps +into vector files or vice versa. For those coming from a traditional +DTP background in the Mac/Windows world, it also +provides some of the functionality of Acrobat Distiller.<br> +</p> + +<p>You should always use the latest version, at least 4.7. (GSview +migrated from the +Windows world, where it has been excellent since the 4.x versions.)</p> + +<p>For use with Scribus, GSview has the following features:</p> + +<ul> + + <li>With the help of <a href="http://pstoedit.net">pstoedit</a>, you +can convert bitmap images or PDF content back into SVG and other +scalable vector file formats.</li> + <li>The ability to preview, convert and add previews (TIFF +recommended) for raw EPS (Encapsulated PostScript files).</li> + <li>The ability to extract text from a PDF.</li> + <li>The ability to preview, convert and add previews for raw +PostScript files.</li> + <li>An easy-to-use front end to Ghostscript’s less well known +features such as image conversion and re-sampling. There are other +features in +Ghostscript, including: converting between TIFF formats, changing the +color depth of a TIFF, JPEG or the color space of an image.</li> +</ul> + +<p>One example where GSview is extremely useful with Scribus is +troubleshooting or fixing EPS files that do not display correctly +within +Scribus. Although many applications can generate EPS files, some add +their own quirks into the EPS, which can cause problems when used in +other programs (like Scribus).</p> + +<p>So, if you find difficulty with an EPS you wish to use in +Scribus, open the EPS in GSview. Then, use the key command <strong>M</strong> +to display messages from Ghostscript. The messages can indicate +problems which cause display or printing errors. You can also use the <strong>epswrite</strong> +“device” to re-save the EPS, which can help to strip out or fix issues +with an EPS.</p> + +<p>You can also <em>rasterize</em> an EPS image, by converting it to +PNG +or TIFF and then resize, adjust colors etc with an image program like +GIMP or Krita.<br> +</p> + +<p> Note that GSview uses the <code>libgs.so</code> shared library to +access Ghostscript. Not all Linux distributions ship this, so the hints +for compiling Ghostscript with a paralell install really apply here. </p> + +<h4>Getting Gsview:</h4> + +<p>GSview is available for most Linux distributions, at least the major +ones. Otherwise you can build GSview by following +the instructions provided in the <a href="http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/%7Eghost/">source package</a>. For +Windows and OS/2 and eComStation you can download <a href="http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/%7Eghost/gsview/get49.htm">conventional +installers</a> . +Unfortunately, there is no current version for Mac OS X available. </p> + +<p>A special note to users of OpenSUSE 11.3: The required GTK 1 +libraries are no longer available for this Linux distribution, but you +can use the <a href="http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/GNOME:/GNOME1/openSUSE_11.2/i586/">versions +compiled for 11.2</a>. You need to install the gtk-1.20 and glib +packages (if you want to build GSview yourself, you also need the +respective devel RPMs), as well as the <a href="http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/GNOME:/GNOME1/openSUSE_11.2/noarch/gtk-lang-1.2.10-1093.1.noarch.rpm">lang +package</a>.<br> +</p> + +<p>Now, for advanced hints with GSview and Ghostscript, see: <a href="toolbox7.html">Advanced Ghostscript and GSview Hints</a></p> + +<p>*) <span style="font-style: italic;">Parts of this section are +thanks to Russell Lang, author and maintainer of GSview, epstool and +Ghostscript for his hints and patiently answering questions about +GSview and Ghostscript.</span></p> + +</body></html>
