Re: [GM-tools] Suppress warning messages

[Frans C. <coe...@gm...>]

Hi Bob,

Thanks for your prompt reply. I'm using GM to convert pdf to tif, so in 
this case I'm assuming Ghostscript is used as the subordinate and is 
producing the warning messages. I like your suggestion about modifying 
the source to customize the output. This might be my solution.

Many thanks,
Frans
