Bug Description
Dear Madgraph developers,
I recently installed the new MacOS operating system called Ventura.
With Ventura the Preview program, which is the one that is routinely used with Mac to open figures, does not support anymore eps image format.
Would it be possible to use PDF format for the figures generated by MadGraph, for example the ones of the diagrams?
Thanks for the consideration!
Best
Mattia

Hi,
Personally on venturra,
I'm opening file by starting to use ps2pdf
and then opening it with preview.
I guess that you can create an script that is register as an app.
Such that you can use that trick if you double click on a file/...
But I never investigate that.
For the display diagrams command of madgraph, I have implemented the above trick within MG5aMC
and this should be part of the LTS (Long Term Stable) version (2.9.13) and of the latest release version (3.4.2)
PDF is not a text file format, so I do not know how to write those and would need a (cpu extensive) converter so I would not run the converter systematically.
I would consider, for the future, an option that would force to run a converter (like the option preventing to generate those eps file).
Cheers,
Olivier
