Dear Tim, > >I haven't tried gsview on the PS output. I know that ghostscript/ >ghostview works. Does gsview provide any error diagnostics about >why it couldn't read the file? > I used the postscript viewers (KGhostview and Gnome Ghostview) from Redhat to read the postscript output file but they can't read it. I attached the output messages that were generated by gsview. I think missing font types could be one of the problems. I tried to input a large GDS layoout file (10 Mbytes) into Magic. I found that the cell manager doesn't show me the name of all the cells before I load the topcell. It displays the name of all the instances under the topcell icon in the cell manager windows. It seems to be some problems with the wrapper. I still can see the name of all the cells in the Tcl console window as well as loading them one by one. However, Magic is not very responsive after I switch from cell to cell. It will pause for a few minutes before it will pass the control of Magic back to me. I opened the Magic without the wrapper and it works fine. Do you think I need to start Magic without the wrapper to deal with a large layout file? I can read this GDS layout file into Magic but I can't see the layout displayed correctly on screen. I would like to understand what is the relationship between the layout colors on the toolbar and dstyle. How can I find out what dstyle file (dsytle and dsytle6) are currently used by Magic? Does the layout colors have a one-to-one relationship with the "layout_styles" section of the dstyle file? Thank you for your help.
