Ghostscript, GSView, & pstoedit

Anybody out there using Ghostscript on Windows? I've been trying for the past week to install all the necessary programs because I need to convert PDF's into DXF's. GS and GSView work alright but pstoedit doesn't seem to work at all. I've tried installing & uninstalling the latest versions (can't download the older versions) but nothing. Anyone else get it to work or have problems?

I had problems with the newer version working for creating pdf's from plt's with ProE. Fortunately I still had the files for v5.5.

For all you Ghostscript users out there, I was able to resolve this one with the help of the programs' authors. There was apparently two gsview32.ini files floating around my system that was causing pstoedit errors. Its fixed and I'm beginning to see what the GS fuss is all about.

If you still need them, I have the install files of GSView 2.7, 2.9 and
3.4.
Personally I still use 2.9 on Ghostscript 6.01 because I think it was
the last version before it went to nagware. I mainly use it for
converting postscripts of Pro/E drawings to .wmf format for embedding
into M$ Office documents because it is so much tidier than using any of
the
raster formats (jpeg, bmp). It is also handy for measuring distances on
pdfs when suppliers don't put enough dimensions on their drawings.
