- Hi,
-
- I have downloaded the dvips binary from tsx-11.mit.edu, and
- when I try and run it on any dvi file I get a segmentation fault. It
- gets as far as printing up its header, the filename, and goes through
- <texc.pro><special.pro>, and then after [1 there is a general protection
- message. It produces part of a postscript file, which seems to stop some
- where in what I assume is the font definition, i.e. there are a large
- number of hexadecimal digits, with some extra stuff between ><'s.
-
- If anyone has had this problem in the past or could suggest a
- fix please let me know.
-
- Thanks
-
- John
