Could you fill me in a little more on what "nothing works" means?
Does it not print? Does the word processor give an error? Does the computer
crash/hang? Does the printer crash/hang? What was the process you used to
create the original ps file (ctrans?) Are you aware that ps2epsi does not
create a preview image so you may not see the image from the word processor
but you will see it when it prints.
Anyhow, have you tried directly generating PostScript epsi from NCAR Graphics?
Information on directly generating postscript for the NCAR Graphics
FORTRAN utilities is available at:
http://ngwww.ucar.edu/ngdoc/ng4.1/gks/ps.html
the following workstation types generate EPSI output.
22 (color portrait)
25 (mono portrait)
28 (landscape color)
31 (mono portrait)
You should not have to use ps2epsi or ctrans to create epsi. I am
not aware of any problems using direct postscript output and Microsoft Word.
Nobody here uses Word Perfect so I can't comment on that.
