Re: Error: /undefined in 8,27 PageWidth



Hi,

Would this be european coding ie using a "," instead of a "." for a decimal
point.

There is a line in (around 420) in util/TextFmt.c++:

static const char* defPrologue = "\
/Cols %u def\n\
/PageWidth %.2f def\n\
/PageHeight %.2f def\n\
/LH %u def\n\
/B{gsave}def\n\
/LN{show}def\n\
/

If printf("%.2f",float_number) uses a comma then maybe thats it.

good luck - Robert
