I am using IDL 6.4 on Linux 64bit, and eps output works relatively painlessly.
I use something like
!P.FONT=0
SET_PLOT, 'PS'
DEVICE, FILENAME=fname
DEVICE, /ENCAPSULATED
DEVICE, /COLOR
DEVICE, BITS_PER_PIXEL=8
DEVICE, XSIZE=sizes[0], YSIZE=sizes[1]
plot stuff
DEVICE, /CLOSE_FILE
SPAWN, 'convert -transparent white -density 400 '+fname+' '+fname+'.png'
in my eps-output procedures and it has always worked. I have, however, given up on
landscape ps output.
I also get weird corrupted (as in "ghostscript cannot render it beyond the first page")
output when doing multipage, non-encapsulated ps. I will post about it if I can
reproduce the problem.
