Hello
This time I have a question about pstopdf on linux:
When I use pstopdf like
latex sample2e
dvips sample2e
pstopdf sample2e.ps
I end up with a correct pdf-file sample2e.pdf.
Now lets do
mv sample2e.ps aBcD.ps
pstopdf aBcD.ps
to have a file name with uppercase letters.
There is no output file aBcD.pdf. pstopdf complains about not finding
aBcD.ps which is true because aBcD.ps has been renamed to abcd.ps.
If there exist both files abcd.ps and aBcD.ps the command
pstopdf aBcD.ps
will overwrite abcd.ps without any warning.
With kind regards
Wolfgang Fleischer
