I just installed MiKTeX (a Win32 implementation of LaTeX) and it is working
beautifully. However, the DVI Viewer is giving me an error when I try to
embed other files into my TeX document. I downloaded Ben's latex.tex file
and the spiral.eps and sample1.tex (which I then parsed (is that the right
term?) to dvi via latex.exe and then used dvips.exe to convert it to a
postscript file). When I parse latex.tex to dvi format and load it into
MiKTeX's DVI Viewer I get this error:
Caption: Yap
Text: Cannot locate GhostScript DLL
It also tells me to view the logbook for details. Here's the log book:
Loading page 2...
Loading page 3...
Loading GhostScript DLL...
Error: Cannot locate GhostScript DLL.
Any thoughts on how to resolve this? Where can I get the GhostScript DLL
(must be on an HTTP server, though)?
I have not searched very much for the GhostScript DLL on my own because
everywhere that I look to download this stuff is FTP only, and I have no FTP
access here... Argh!
As a side note, the program can recover from this error, it's just that some
weird remnants show up and none of the graphics show up. I have not tried
printing it, I bet it would be pretty fscked up.
Thanks for the help.
