Re: Error while converting PCL to PS
How did you do that? Generally, standalone delegates will have a website somewhere, with a Windows installation package. But if that doesn't work, you need to take it up with those people.sbatt wrote:I tried to install "GhostPCL 9.20 for Windows (32 bit) " ...

Re: Error while converting PCL to PS
I am not an expert on this format, but according to http://www.imagemagick.org/script/formats.php, PCL in Imagemagick is write only. So you may have to use GhostPCL standalone to convert from PCL. But I will defer to the IM developers on this.

Re: Error while converting PCL to PS
The zip file contains a program called "gpcl6win64.exe". I suppose you have installed that to somewhere on your system path.
IM is trying to run "pcl6.exe". So you should either rename the downloaded program, or edit your delegates.xml to use the actual program name.

GhostPCL 9.20 for Windows (32 bit) this will give you "gpcl6win32.exe" but when I try to execute this I get ""The program can't start because GPCL6DLL.32 is missing from your computer..Try re0-installing the program to fix this problem""

Re: Error while converting PCL to PS
I downloaded the 64-bit version. It includes a file called "gpcl6dll64.dll".
Does the zip you downloaded contain "GPCL6DLL.32"? If so, did you put it in the same directory as the EXE file, and is that directory on your path?
