[SOLVED] postscript documents now blank in konqueror

This is only a farfetched suggestion (don't know if I'm on the right track). Check to see if synaptic removed any of the following:

psutils
gs-common
gs-esp
gsfonts
gs-gpl

Just a thought.

Thanks for the reply.
All the programs are there, with the same update level as the vanilla install in another partition, except that gs-gpl is NOT in the vanilla, and is available but not installed on my installation.
I checked this twice. Then I installed gs-gpl. But I get same problem.
I checked the vanilla install to be sure I really could read postscript files with ghostscript.

Ghostscript on my installation gives this message:
ERROR: /unknownerror

Hi, i had the same problem. So, in settings > Configure KGhostview > General i unchecked the option "enable antialiasing for fonts & images" and the document was visible. (Don't ask me why)

good luck, c.

Thanks for the tip about unchecking the option - that did it!
The "vanilla" install has that setting checked and there is no problem. I won't ask you why.

It's discouraging when we compare versions and the settings are the same and yet there is a problem. Perhaps there is still another setting somewhere but I'm not tinkering with what works.
