It's a major update and probably something with printing and/or pdfviewer will be broken. Please test it. -Andy

Good to hear, Ghostscript 8.71 changed the default "strip" size of MMR tiff which broke hylafax (caused it to send blank pages). That is fixed in 9.0 evidently. Right now my test server is down, but I'll give it a test once it is back up.... -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

Hello, preview-latex (part of auctex, a very widespread emacs-mode for TeX-ing) does not work with ghostscript 9.00. There is a bug report on the bug-auctex mailing list about that. A very simple confirming minimal example is the following laTeX-File: \documentclass{article} \begin{document} $\mu$ \end{document} Regards Stefan
