Hi,

I use SuSE 9.0 and I want to convert a dvi document (generated with latex which includes a lot of figures, in .eps format and tables) to pdf. I have used this method a lot of times with no problem (typing "dvipdf document.dvi") but now I see the following error message:

ESP Ghostscript 7.07.1: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1

After some googling it seems that my ghostscript version is buggy. But this is my office's computer; cannot install anything (I am a normal user), and I have to solve the problem here, that's the most difficult thing. I thought about building last version of ghostscript from source, but it seems to be very complicated and I don't know if it worths.

I also tried using dvipdfx but I should install it, and the same problem; building from source gives me crazy.

Other program I tried was dvipdfm, but although there are no error messages in the compilation procedure, when I look at the pdf, figures are "broken" and sometimes dissapear.

Do you know some other programs to achieve my objetive or do you know how to solve this situation ?

Thanks!
