[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #55906] emf format no longer works for printing

[Pantxo Diribarne]

Update of bug #55906 (project octave):

                  Status:                    None => Confirmed

Follow-up Comment #2:

@Rik: I think producing emf files should work on linux too. The problem
happens in pstoedit but we don't see any error since we redirect stderr. The
equivalent command is:

plot (1:10)
print -depsc toto.eps
system "cat toto.eps |/usr/bin/pstoedit -f fig | /usr/bin/fig2dev -L emf >
/tmp/toto.emf"


What I see is that pstoedit calls Ghostscript which in turn fails
