A little more experimenting reveals a few more things - if I specify PNG for the output instead of the default PDF, there are no errors and the PNG image is fine.

That makes sense; it's ghostscript that's broken.

If I specify Postscript for the output, the resulting PS file will not open in Preview (nor for that matter in GraphicConverter, which reports the file as corrupt). However, the PS file *will* open in KGhostView and KPDF (both running in XDarwin) and appear to be fine.

This is normal.

(On a side note, when I tried to produce SVG from LP, it produced a PS file instead!?)

See the options; -f=svg is not valid. It should probably print an error message.

I'm not sure what to do from here. I can at least use KGhostView to print or convert the PS file to PDF, but who likes clunky workarounds? Graham, you mentioned checking my command-line environment - did you have something specific in mind that I should check?

See the "notes for the OSX app" in the unstable docs; I changed them about a month ago. Follow those new instructors, and let me know if that improves things.

Cheers,
