from         


        

Answer 1

In case someone else encounters this issue: It seems that Ghostscript has not been added to the paths properly. For those running Win7, here is a fix:

Go to: Control Panel -> System -> Advanced system settings -> Environment Variables...

Find the variable "PATH" -> Edit... -> add the path to your ghostscript binary folder, e.g.

C:\Program Files\gs\gs9.22\bin\;

to the end of the variable. It should be separated from the previous entry by a semicolon.

I had to restart for the changes to take effect.
