Without printim, you can't generate an image from the metafile buffer, so there's not a whole lot you can do to get image output. Maybe you can use 'print' to write out a metafile and use gxps and then some other utility to convert the postscript to an image. Whoever installed GrADS on your system probably built it without any of the supplibs to enable the features you need. Take a look at http:///iges.org/grads/gadoc/supplibs.html. <div>--Jennifer<br><br><div><div>On Mar 5, 2011, at 12:20 PM, ugo merlini wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: auto; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; font-size: medium; "><div class="hmmessage" style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Tahoma; ">Hi,<br><br>I'm trying grads and have some questions an d a problem<br><br>First of all I'm using a debian (squeeze) linux computer without X-server and I found grads in its repository :-)<br><br>Not having an X-server on the computer I will use grads in batch mode and I see that exist a command (printim) which generate an image file but I get this error "PRINTIM error: command not supported in this build" why?<br><br>For the question is possible to generate an output image to put on the web server?<br><br>Regards<br><br>Ugo<br><br><br>_______________________________________________<br>gradsusr mailing list<br><a href="mailto:gradsusr@gradsusr.org">gradsusr@gradsusr.org</a><br><a href="http://gradsusr.org/mailman/listinfo/gradsusr">http://gradsusr.org/mailman/listinfo/gradsusr</a><br></div></span></blockquote></div><br><div apple-content-edited="true"> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -khtml-nbsp-mode: space; -khtml-line-break: after-white-space; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><div>--</div><div>Jennifer M.
