# TexLive 2012, Xelatex and pst-eucl

pst-eucl is giving me big trouble on my new macbook. I used it in the past with success, but it doesn't seem to want to play well with the TexLive 2012 installation when running on mac.

Even taking the examples from http://mirror.ox.ac.uk/sites/ctan.org/graphics/pstricks/contrib/pst-eucl/pst-eucl-doc.pdf

doesn't work. Some does, but most dont. The following is an example of something that doesn't work

\documentclass[a4paper]{article}
\usepackage{pstricks}
\usepackage{pst-eucl}
\begin{document}

\begin{pspicture}
\psset{arrowscale=2}
\pstGeonode[PosAngle=-135](-1.5,-.2){A}(.5,.2){B}(0,-2){D}
\pstRotation[PosAngle=90, RotAngle=60, CodeFig=true,
CodeFigColor=blue,
TransformLabel=\frac{\pi}{3}]{A}{B}[C]
\pstRotation[AngleCoef=.5, RotAngle=\pstAngleAOB{B}{A}{C},
CodeFigColor=red, CodeFig=true,
TransformLabel=\frac{1}{2}\widehat{BAC}]{A}{D}[E]

\end{pspicture}

\end{document}


Anybody got a suggestion on how to make pst-eucl work on a TexLive installation on macosx?

I think you're question should read that you're interested only in a xelatex solution since the latex->dvips->ps2pdf will work for this example. – A.Ellett Feb 3 at 21:45
I've been browsing the questions on this site for xelatex and pstricks. It seems according to @egreg's answer to a previous question that there may indeed be some incompatibility between xelatex and pstricks. – A.Ellett Feb 3 at 21:49
Ok, I thought it was a problem with my texlive installation. Since I had the impression that it should work. Ill just use latex->dvips->ps2pdf then :) – JustDanyul Feb 3 at 21:53
Your example seems to run fine for me (XeLaTeX, MacTeX 2012). Can you explain what exactly "doesn't work"? – Silex Feb 3 at 22:14
I tried and get GPL Ghostscript 9.05: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1. If I try with XeLaTeX from TeX Live 2011 it adds error messages about /undefined in psAngle – egreg Feb 3 at 22:17
