Can it be viewed by someone who only has Explorer? |

Been working with xcircuit. It saves in PS but can be |
| 18 |
made into a jpeg which looked just as sharp as the |
| 19 |
original. |

I found this command online: |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
gs -dBATCH -sOutputFile=4804SR-output.jpg |
| 24 |
-sDEVICE=jpeg 4804SR-output.ps |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
Which I changed to this: |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
gs -dBATCH -sOutputFile=4804SR-output.png |
| 29 |
-sDEVICE=jpeg 4804SR-output.ps |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
The first file it created ends in .jpg, the second in |
| 32 |
.png. But they're both the same size and look exactly |
| 33 |
the same in the browser. When I gave it -sDEVICE=png |
| 34 |
it replied "Unknown device: png". So maybe it just |
| 35 |
makes jpegs but will call them whatever... |
