Fixing conflicts between Ghostscript & gs

Fixing conflicts between Ghostscript & gs

If you are using gs for managing your gem sets and you are also using any tool that relies on Ghostscript for converting PDF files to other formats (e.g. GraphicsMagick, docsplit, etc.), you may find that one of the two will fail due to a conflict between the two gs commands.

There are two possible solutions to this problem:

  • rename the gs command to something else (e.g. gset, gs_, etc), and leave Ghostscript's gs as the only gs command in your system.
  • edit GraphicMagick's delegates file and specify the full path to the gs command. This file is located in the lib/GraphicsMagick/config directory of your GraphicsMagick's installation. If GraphicsMagick was installed via homebrew, you can find the full path to this file by running brew list graphicsmagick | grep delegates.
