Ghostscript on HP-UX 11i

Does anyone know what version of Ghostscript will run on HP-UX os 11i? Has any one ever installed it on a 11i box?

Hi,

I didn't not install it but a compiled version is available at HP's porting site here.

Check the following link for GS v. 5

I have not installed it, but this web site is pretty clear about which compiled version to download for each HP-UX version.

Incidentally, I found this via google.com, searching on

hp-ux porting archive ghostscript

I thought I'd find the HP-UX porting and archive site at Ohio State or the University of Utah (or even overseas), but this site came up, most righteous!

7.05 definitely works on 11i.

I am using it in production.

I installed it off the depots listed above and we use it every day to create acrobat files in our print spooler.

Re: Ghostscript on HP-UX 11i

I use the version from the HPUX porting site. It works great.

Hi

Most of the 11.00 depot should work fine on 11i this should apply to ghostscript. The lates ghostscript (7.0.7) is available from:

http://hpux.connect.org.uk/hppd/hpux/PostScript/ghostscript-7.07/

Let me know if you have any problem with the binary.

PS. The US site is the mirror of UK site and the 7.05 that the others are suggesting is been done by me also.
