I'm running Mathematica for Students 3.01 (PowerMac 7100, OS 8.1), and
can't for the life of me get psrender to export a simple plot to EPS
format. Here's the run:
In[2]:= sp = Plot[Sin[x],{x,0,2Pi}] <graphics omitted>
In[3]:= Display["HD2:test.eps",sp,"EPS"]
Display::"pserr":
"\!\(\"PostScript language error:\\re\" \\[Ellipsis] \"efined,
command \ findresource\\n\"\)"
In[4]:= $Version
Out[4]= "Power Macintosh 3.0 (July 24, 1997)"
However, if I click on the plot and use the "Save As... EPS" command
from the Edit menu, it saves correctly. However, I'd really prefer to
use Display and have fine control over options (particularly resizing).
Also, although $Version returns "3.0", my "About" box claims this is
actually version 3.0.1.1x (Student). "Get Info..." from the Finder
also shows the version of both the front end and kernel to be 3.01.
Any hints as to what causes that error?
Thanks,
Larry Gallagher
