Re: DocView: process ps->pdf changed status to killed.

Hi Tassilo

I tried what I should have try from the beginning starting
emacs with --no-site-file -q option. In this case your code
works. So it's clear it's one of the multiple codes that are
loadded by my emacs that disturbs your code. I am alone now to
determine which one and why. Anyway thanks for your help !
