maharbal Hi everybody. Maybe someone can help me. I'm trying to generate a pdf using GhostScriptPCL in linux. My input file contains standard characters (that are converted ok) and cyrillic characters (e.g. unicode 1044). My input file should be encoded in some way or some extra parameter must be passed to get it working?15:02.21 
malc_ maharbal: 1044 is MYANMAR DIGIT FOUR15:05.35 
maharbal well, I'm just currently trying to get one of these characters displayed in the generated pdf15:06.36 
  i suppose it should work with unicode 1044 character too15:06.51 
malc_ maharbal: smells like fonts issue (absence of cyrillic).. but you better wait till real ghostscript gurus appear, i'm just a bystander15:09.07 
maharbal :) I've looked into the font and it has cyrillic chars. anyway, every cyrillic char is beign converted into a pair of strange things (i guess ghostpcl is not even thinking that is a single character)15:10.41 
malc_ maybe something is confused by encoding or somesuch...15:11.22 
maharbal maye, I hope that using some switch or changing my input file it will work15:16.12 
aghost Is ghostscript-9.05 available as GPL licensed code now since it has been more than a year since it's release? See: http://en.opensuse.org/Ghostscript15:20.39 
robin_watts_mac aghost: Ghostscript releases are instantly AGPL licensed.15:26.34 
  9.07 is available under GNU AGPL on http://downloads.ghostscript.com/public/15:27.28 
  maharbal: To be clear... the problem is characters in the filename? or characters in the display of the file contents ?15:33.02 
maharbal hi robin_watts_mac, finally i've found the problem. I have to specify the TextParsingMethod in PCL15:56.55 
robin_watts_mac ok. I know nothing about PCL, so I'm glad it worked for you.15:57.56 
tkamppeter Some questions about GS 9.07, what is the difference between AGPL and GPL?21:17.55
