qeldroma Posted May 6, 2003 Report Share Posted May 6, 2003 Is there a stable one? I'll have to edit a 180MB-file, that's why i need a stable one. I want to delete some parts of this poster to reduce the size.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtweidmann Posted May 6, 2003 Report Share Posted May 6, 2003 Not exactly what you wanted but it should work: In Konqueror right-click on the .ps file and near the bottom of the list of options there should be "Convert PS file to PDF". You can then use KOffice with pdf plugin to edit it, and use the pdf printer to output it later. Finally in Konqueror right-click on the new pdf file and select "Convert PDF file to PS". The KOffice PDF Plugin: http://sourceforge.net/projects/kpdfimport/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qeldroma Posted May 7, 2003 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2003 Well...tried this. It dumps a core :shock: Perhaps the ps2pdf is not strong enough for this huge file... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoonChild Posted May 7, 2003 Report Share Posted May 7, 2003 I know my Gimp opened a 100MB ps file once. But I am not sure if this will work for you. Also, you can open it in a smaller resolution, to make the memory usage trivial, and then save it again. I am not sure if the technique would work though. Another cool program to try is Scribus. I am not sure, but I believe it lets you import PS and PDF files to edit like Adobe Acrobat does. Check it out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
