PDFCrop Mac OS CATALINA : !!! Ghostscript exited with error code 127 !!! #82

Closed PhileasFoggy closed 4 years ago

PhileasFoggy commented 4 years ago

Hello,

I'm trying to use pdfcrop with python 3.6 on a MacBook Pro OS 10.15.4. I have always an error when I compile my program during crop.

My program lines are:

import subprocess as sub sub.call('pdfcrop toto.pdf toto.pdf', shell=True)

The error is :

!!! Ghostscript exited with error code 127 !!!

Ghostscript version : 9.50 Perl : 5.28

Could you help me please ?

Regards

@PhileasFoggy Hi, the perl script pdfcrop is not in this repository.

PhileasFoggy commented 4 years ago

I have finally find the solution.

The problem was with a file named 'gs', that pdfcrop was no able to find. Now it's ok. Copy and paste the 'gs' file in the good directory and it will work.

@PhileasFoggy Very well, although the best solution is to adjust the PATH to find gs or use the gscmd option from pdfcrop. Anyway remember to close this issue. Greetings.
