Debian :: Convert Postscript Files To Pdf Format
May 5, 2010
I use Linux for my everyday work but lately I've been faced with a trouble when I send out file printouts from my browser from my Debian system to (normally) window$ systems, where they are not readable. Is there a way for me to convert the postscript files into pdf format? Most window$ users will have some sort of pdf reader installed but I am still to find one user that has Ghostscript and Ghostview installed. where can I find the TTF fonts that are shipped with every standard installation of Debian? I'm sometimes forced to print files through a windows system and because the fonts loaded in that system are not the ones I use in Debian (URW Gothic L, as an example) I end up having my official documents disfigured. If I can carry around with me a ready-to-install fonts package I can get over this obstacle.

Recently, my hard drive crashed. I was using XP and do not have my install discs (lost them 3 moves ago...). I make backups regularly and only lost roughly 3 days worth of material (nothing really important). On my other PC I've been running linux forever. I don't need windows and have installed a new HD in the PC and put fedora on there w/ no issues. Now historical email. There seems to be many workarounds for getting dbx files to mbox inside windows, but how would I accomplish this task without a windows install anywhere (Virtual installs are out as I do not have any install discs for windows anyways).
After a quick search, I only found one possible solution (in perl) and am looking for something that I don't have to program my self. I am a programmer by trade but have never programmed in perl (c++, FORTRAN, matlab, python... yes) and at this point, don't feel like learning new syntexs for this one problem (python has been my goto scripting language for everything linux...). Also if anyone has a link to a c++ lib(link to documentation?) that does the same thing... I might take a look at that and make a gui for it... then release it for others...

I'd like to write a bash script to convert all of the .mpg files in a directory to .avi files. The ffmpeg part of this produces the kind of file that I want, but rather than changing the name of the input and output files each time that I run the script, I'd like to automate it. I've tried this script, but I get an error "command not found".
#!/bin/bash
cd /home/michael_s/golf_temp
1 for i in 'ls *.mpg' ; do
/usr/bin/ffmpeg.exe -i /home/michael_s/golf_temp/"$i" -map 0:0 -map 0:1 -pass 1 -vcodec mpeg4 -vtag xvid -f avi -b 1100k -vol 384 -mbd rd -s 640x480 -aspect 4:3 -acodec libmp3lame -ac 2 -ab 128k /home/michael_s/golf_temp/"$i".avi
rm -f /home/michael_s/golf/temp/"$i".avi
/usr/bin/ffmpeg.exe -i /home/michael_s/golf_temp/"$i" -map 0:0 -map 0:1 -pass 2 -vcodec mpeg4 -vtag xvid -f avi -b 1100k -vol 384 -mbd rd -s 640x480 -aspect 4:3 -acodec libmp3lame -ac 2 -ab 128k /home/michael_s/golf_temp/"$i".avi
done
fi

just wondering is there a simple script to convert datetime to UTC format. I have been searching different forums but most answers are for converting UTC to datetime. For example what is a simple command/script to convert todays datetime to UTC format i.e. '2009-10-09 11:47:59'.

Anyone know of any programs to convert a postscript file to a gerber file? LinkCAD can do it, but, it is very expensive and I can't get the demo to run.

My Ubuntu Karmic install has a very useful Print-to-File Printer configured which allows me to generate Postscript and PDF files.
I have Windows XP running on Virtualbox and I want to be able to generate PDF files using this printer but there appear to be no Printers configured.

I am using CentOS 5.5 64 bit.
My work requires me to have a lot of postscript files. Hence i have elaborate names for easy identification. For example --- AP-1_Jul-Ctrl-noEqSA_bg25C_precip,U250-150_xy.ps. I am unable to open them using evince. I get a blank evince screen with loading written on it. The same file named as 1.ps opens in a jiffy. As of now evince quickly opens pdf files with long names. But i would not like to convert ps to pdf.
Even kghostview does not open these long-named files.

I thought this would only merit a google. but all methods seem overtly complicated. I have a bunch of folders filled with .doc files and I need them to convert to plain .txt files. Is there a program I can download from the repositories, or a command I can use to do this?

A day or two ago I saw a weird file in my downloads folder, and deleted it. I'm not sure why I deleted it rather than wondering why there was a weird file there, but anyway...another one has shown up.
name: datetime
type: PS document (application/postscript)
It's an image. The top part of the image shows what I was doing in a terminal last night. The bottom part shows a folder I was browsing in Nautilus. I believe the top and bottom parts are from different times. I'm a little weirded out, it's like something is taking screenshots of what I'm doing. Anyone happen to know what program created these or why?

I want to convert tiff -> jpg images with convert
Problem is that the tiff images are in a subdirectory structure like:
Directory_x -> subdir_y -> tiff images + textfiles
How will a script look like that does following:
1. Creates the same subdirectory structure
2. Converts tiff -> jpg
3. Copyes all the textfiles
So all in all, I want to create the same subdirectory structure but with tiff converted to jpg

I have Ubuntu 9.04 and just installed Sound Converter. I am trying to convert a bunch of .ogg files to mp3 to play on my iPod and it's not working so well. In the Sound Converter options I have is set to convert to high quality mp3. I choose the folder that the files are in and after a moment (slow laptop) Sound Converter populates, I hit 'convert' and it shows that the conversion completes in two seconds. All that it did was create the new folder structure of artist/album but there is nothing in there. Not sure what I am missing. I used Sound Converter before and it worked fine.

Recently upgraded to Squeeze, and have a problem with Devede I haven`t seen before. When I try to convert three avi files to play on a standard dvd player, the finished ISO is still only 2,2 GB. It turns out only the first file gets included in the ISO, even though I can see Devede processing all files during conversion.
