[GRASS-user] ps.map: One Script Works, One Doesn't

[Dave Kent]

I am having a similar, perhaps related problem.

I have a raster image overlain by a series of vectors.

ps.map fails erratically.  

If I remove the raster, it works.

If I remove v.legend, it works.  (legend only for vector features)

If I make one specific item in the legend as -- lpos 0 -- it works.

When all are present in the script, it fails.

When I try to make a  pdf with Distiller, the "offending error" is a long numeric string approximately 100 digits long.  I opened the postscript file in a text editor and the long string seemed to be associated with the legend.  After editing the string, I could open the postscript file.

In other mapsets, things work fine.

The problem appears to be associated with the legend.  i have no idea why there is any link with the raster image.

Mac, Snow Leopard, Grass 6.4RC3, Mr. Kyngesburye's binaries updated today.
