Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ pstricks not working

[ofeyrpf]

Hi,
Is there any reason the following little bit of /pstricks should not work? I can't see what is wrong.

Code: Select all

\documentclass[a4paper,12pt]{report}
\pagestyle{myheadings}
\usepackage{pstricks} 
\usepackage{enumitem}
\begin{document}
\begin{enumerate}%[resume]
\item {\bf Problems:} Measure the following lines with a ruler or measuring tape.\\
\begin{pspicture}(0,0)
\psline(2,1)(3,2)
\psline(3,2)(3,5)
\psline(3,5)(5,6)
\rput(1,6){(a)}
\psline(7,6)(10,5)
\psline(10,5)(7,2)
\psline(7,2)(11,2)
\rput(6,6){(b)}
\end{pspicture}
\end{enumerate}
\end{document}

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Shane

What is not working?
Did you run this with latex or xelatex? pdflatex can't do pstricks on its own.

Hi,

I am using MikTex (On Windows) and pdfLaTex. I tried all allowed options and they all give errors except BibTex which outputs nothing.

Error:

The following typed into the command line creates a dvi file where I can see the pstricks line I am trying to draw. But it does not appear in the pdf.

Code: Select all

latex TestPSTricks.tex
dvips TestPSTricks.dvi
ps2pdf -dAutoRotatePages#/None TestPSTricks.ps 

Thanks,
