When new typesetting methods become available or older methods require new flags to operate properly, the changes are generally handled in TeXShop by creating new engine files. These samples were provided by Antonis Tsolomitis, with email address and web url Typeset the source file Transparency.tex to see the same change of behavior when typesetting in DVI mode. If the new item is selected, the ruler will be partially transparent and show items underneath. If the new item is not selected, the ruler in the illustration will cover the material underneath. This folder contains two files which can be copied to your home directory: Select the TeXShop menu "Open ~/Library/TeXShop" and navigate to Two sample files are provided for experimentation with the new setting. This preference item should still work when users supply their own Ghostscript, possibly from macports or homebrew, but that has not been tested. TeXShop does not want to interfere with users who are carefully controlling the Ghostscript flags themselves. The flag is added (in DVI mode) only if the user has not added "-distillerops" to the simpdftex preference settings. It has no effect when used with earlier versions of Ghostscript. The flag requires Ghostscript 9.51 or higher. Will only preserve transparency if the flag is set. Projects typeset in this way can use the package pstricks for extra typesetting effects, and pstricks can add transparency to illustrations. When TeXShop typesets files in DVI mode, it runs TeX or LaTeX to create a dvi file, runsÄvips to create a postscript file, converts the postscript file to pdf using ps2pdf, and displays the pdf file.Without the flag, transparency will be ignored in the ps file. When TeXShop opens a postscript file, it calls ps2pdf to convert the postscript to pdf and opens the pdf file.This activation only applies in two circumstances: In TeXShop 5.18, a preference item titled "Ghostscript Options" under the Typesetting tab can be checked to activate the flag. Ghostscript do not process transparency operators in ps files unless the flag -dALLOWSPSTRANSPARENCY is added to the function call.
