The ps file

Hi there,

when I hope to convert a ps file, which produced by LaTeX with beamer class, to
a pdf file, a error appeared:

E:\>"d:\Program Files\gs\gs9.00\bin\gswin32c.exe" -q -dSAFER -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH

I tested the same ps file with ghostscript 8.71, no error occurred.

This is undoubtedly nothing to do with the PDF writer. I suspect that using the
display device would give the same error.

You are using an unqualified path to the file, which means its using the
current working directory. There were changes made to the way this works in 9.0
in order to address security concerns.

The command ps2pdf was probably used for ps to pdf conversion. It
automatically sets -dSAFER. To override this, option -dNOSAFER should be set:

ps2pdf -dNOSAFER zz.ps
