Hi,

Actually the bug seems to be with Ghostscript part. I will post it anyway since I'm sure someone here can help me with it.
ImageMagick 6.3.3
Ghostscript 8.57
Mac OS X 10.4.10

- I first create a rectangle under PowerPoint, and fill it with a pattern (such as diagonal strokes)
- I print the file as a postscript file (thanks to Mac OS "Save PDF as Postscript" feature in the Print dialog)
- The file looks ok in any program
- I use convert test.ps test.jpg, and get:

GPL Ghostscript 8.57: Unrecoverable error, exit code 255
GPL Ghostscript 8.57: Unrecoverable error, exit code 255
convert: Postscript delegate failed `test.ps'.
convert: missing an image filename `test.jpg'.

This bug ONLY occurs with fill patterns. I cna find workarounds but I was wondering if someone could reproduce the bug. I'd upload the .ps file if I could.

Thanks.

P.S :

Here what the verbose mode says :

Ok, this problem no longer occurs with Ghostscript 8.60 and ImageMagick 6.3.5.
