The abcm2ps program allows the inclusion of arbitrary postscript. That's fine on a desktop, but not on a server. Does this extension strip that out? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 195.62.202.107 (talk • contribs) 16:39, 27 April 2011. Please sign your posts with ~~~~!

Windows Installation

[edit]

I'm trying to install this on a Window 7 machine. I'm running WAMP (Apache 2.2.17, PHP 5.3.4). I got abcm2ps to run, so it's created a an ABC file and a PS file. However, it fails with the message: Error: ImageMagick failed to convert input [C:/wamp/www/mwiki/abc/8c/51/7d/8c517d4f33a7c9fa1b142dcff34e3aee2ae8c00f.png] (ret: 1).Output: ImageMagick is installed and it works because I use it for image uploads and thumbnails. Is this Extension trying to write to the program's directory? If it is, that would cause the failure... (Windows can only (typically) write to the program's directory if run as an administrator, and WAMP isn't run that way on my machine).

Also, the extension doesn't show up on my Special:Version page... --Mr Minchin 20:05, 1 May 2011 (UTC)Reply
