[mac-gs] Cannot convert EPS to bitmap using MacGSView 2.0b3

G'day,

I have been trying to use MacGSView 2.0b3 to convert EPS files to any 
kind of bitmap, eg JPEG or TIFF. Even after updating the Ghostscript 
Shared Library to version 8.0, MacGSView fails to "export" or 
"convert" any EPS files in to a bitmap format. The process appears to 
run smoothly but no bitmap file is created. The strange thing is that 
MacGSView can perfectly render an EPS file on screen but it just 
fails to save that bitmap as a file.

I've read online that other people have experienced the same problem 
but I haven't found a solution. I've tested this on both Mac OS 8.6 
and 9.2.2. I would greatly appreciate any suggestions to enable me to 
resave EPS files in a bitmap format.

Thank you for your help.

Regards,

Luke.
