ps2pdf error on Linux RHEL4
 

I have output that I send to my HP Laser Jet Printer. I want to add the ability to convert the file to a PDF so that I can e-mail it. I get an error below:

#s2pdf test.ps test.pdf

I know that ps2pdf works 'cause I did some testing and I get the desired results from:

man -t man | ps2pdf - test.pdf

The file that I create, test.ps, I can send to the printer using lp and it works just fine. I am at a loss as to why this does not work using my laserjet printer file. I would simply try to create a text version, but the file that prints out has graphics that I cannot create with just a text output. ps2pdf seemed like the ideal tool, but so far i am just frustrated.

Try ps2pdf with a different file so that you can determine if it is the file that is corrupt, or if it is a problem with your ps2pdf configuration.
