Nick and Ben:

 

I hope some of this helps:

 

1.      I haven’t seen the “D:\Program” error in a long time.

2.      I installed Octave 3.7.2+ and Ghostscript v9.07 in paths with no white spaces.  Even though I don’t use it anymore, I never deleted Octave 3.6.4.  It still resides in a path with white spaces.  I certainly could delete it if you thought it was a problem.

3.      I thought I correctly added Ghostscript to the system path/environment variables per the setup instructions.

4.      When I type system (“gswin32c.exe”) I get a Ghostscript 9.07 header.

 

I’m cheered that my routines work on your systems.  I’d like it to work on mine.  J

 

Thanks again,

 

Rick

 

 

I'm not sure it will help resolve the problem, but please type EXEC_PATH at Octave's prompt and copy-n-paste the text it returns into you reply.

 

Also tell us if you've installed more than one version of Ghostscript and where they are.

Ben:

Using the diary command I captured the following in response to EXEC_PATH:

ans = D:\Octave\Octave-3.7.2+\msys\bin;D:\Octave\Octave-3.7.2+\libexec\octave\3.7.2+\site\exec\i686-pc-mingw32;D:\Octave\Octave-3.7.2+\libexec\octave\api-v48+\site\exec\i686-pc-mingw32;D:\Octave\Octave-3.7.2+\libexec\octave\site\exec\i686-pc-mingw32;D:\Octave\Octave-3.7.2+\libexec\octave\3.7.2+\exec\i686-pc-mingw32;D:\Octave\Octave-3.7.2+\bin
