All rights reserved. which suggested that my previous "from ubuntu 18.04" was in fact not matching reality: it looks like I installed gs from sources, only a few months ago, and completely forgot about it. ;/ Mah, I manually removed my binary (/usr/local/bin/gs), and apt-purged-and-installed fig2ps ghostscript ghostscript-x gv. Now it says: GPL Ghostscript 9.25 (2018-09-13) Copyright (C) 2018 Artifex Software, Inc. All rights reserved. which seems to match what you reported above. I was then able to generate perfbook.pdf, even though with a bunch of: CodeSamples/SMPdesign/smpalloc.canonical.eps --> CodeSamples/SMPdesign/smpalloc.canonical.pdf GPL Ghostscript 9.25: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1 I only had a quick look at the generated .pdf, but I haven't noticed issues. Are those errors expected? Any other suggestion? Thanks, Andrea > > Akira
