I've written a simple commanline wrapper for calling GhostScript from
Python. It uses os.system under Windows and os.popen under unixes. The call
looks basically like this:
gs -q -dNODISPLAY -dNOPAUSE -dSAFER ps2ai.ps infile.eps >outfile.ai
I'd prefer to use the GhostScript DLL API* and call it using ctypes under
Windows. This way, I could package just the DLL with my application and the
user would not necessarily need to install the full GhostScript. However, I
don't really know how to handle ctypes very well.
Has anyone perhaps written something like that already and cares to share a
code snippet?
Regards,
Adam
