Hi Andreas,
 
I've just installed TexPoint 2.12.1 on PowerPoint 2003 SP2 and I'm
having some problem in having it running properly.
In particular I have my scripts compliled with a proper DVI and PS
generated but I fail having the equations displayed in the PPT file, I
get an error message saying:
 
Error:
Serious error while execution of maketheshape
 
While the TexPoint window displays at its bottom:
 
Running Ghostscript to get the bounding box ...
 
I suspect it is a problem with Ghostscript, I tried both versions 7.00
and 8.14 and the Ghostscript parameter
 
-q -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -sDEVICE=$(GSdev) -r$(res)
-sOutputFile="$(base).$(bmext)" -g$(sx)x$(sy) -c $(tx) $(ty) translate
$(excom)  -q "$(base).ps"
 
After setting the debug level to 2 I get a log file (MakeBitmap.txt) as
follows:
 
TexPoint Debug started at 17-04-2007 14:18:40
