PostScript output option doesn't work #199

Open karlmsmith opened 6 years ago

karlmsmith commented 6 years ago

Reported by steven.c.hankin on 24 Aug 2007 17:07 UTC We need to decide what PostScript-like functionality we should support. If we can support the option as configured, that's great.

Currently, selecting the Color Plot option Image Format = PostScript causes an error.

First response is a window that has clickable text "STDOUT/STDERR". Clicking it gives


HTTP Status 404 - /lasv7_nvods/%3EPostscript%20File%20of%20the%20Plot%3C/a%3E%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%3C/tr%3E%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%3Ctr%3E%20%20%20%20%20%3Ctd%20colspan=

Comment by steven.c.hankin on 24 Aug 2007 17:12 UTC Note: If PostScript output is not trivial to fix (for Armstrong 1.0), then we should remove it from the Options. We have been admonished to remove the "blind alleys" from LAS.

Comment by @AnsleyManke on 24 Aug 2007 20:14 UTC The product scripts would not need much in the way of changes to produce postscript output, but the Ferret session must be started with the -batch startup option rather than -gif (which I assume is the case?)

I will comment out this option in the xml, for the Armstrong 1.0 release and we need to revisit this for 1.1.

Comment by @AnsleyManke on 17 Oct 2007 22:58 UTC References to postscript have been commented out in the options and operations files in conf/examples.

What remains to be done is to make a means of starting Ferret with the -batch postscript startup option rather than the -gif option, then the scripts can be written to make postscript output. Moving this to Armstrong 1.2
