Originally reported by: nobody@users.sourceforge.net Distiller will warn about Destinations that are used but never defined. GS 7.03 doesn't do that, but it would be nice if it did. Run this thru ps2pdf to demonstrate: %! 0 0 moveto 100 100 lineto stroke [ /Dest /foo /DEST pdfmark showpage 100 100 moveto 200 200 lineto stroke [/Rect [100 100 200 200] /Dest /foo /Border [0 0 0.1] /Subtype /Link /ANN pdfmark showpage % broken link, no warning 100 100 moveto 200 200 lineto stroke [/Rect [100 100 200 200] /Dest /bar /Border [0 0 0.1] /Subtype /Link /ANN pdfmark showpage
Comment originally by lpd@users.sourceforge.net Logged In: YES user_id=8861 Thanks for the suggestion. ps2pdf currently has no way to produce warnings at all. (It is not acceptable for an output driver to attempt to write directly to stdout or stderr, because drivers can be used in environments that don't have stdio, or environments where their output is being sent to stdout.) However, ps2pdf should produce warnings not only for this but for other things as well, such as fonts that cannot be embedded. We have added this to the list of requested enhancements in doc/Projects.htm.
