I just downloaded from the Download page.
There is no "gswin64c.exe" in the download.

Hi Richard,
Beginners page tells me that perhaps we need a different version of
Ghostscript, not gs.exe?
Well, those are pre-built versions of ghostscript with whatever name
Artifex's build system chooses to give them, the gs.exe that is shipped
with Denemo is built from source. It is there as part of the LilyPond
which is also built from source, but it may well need some environment
variables set to get it going, which LilyPond will be taking care of.
After a hard battle I've got the export of a book of layouts working on
a windows laptop using a installed version of ghostscript; I've not
tested it on the internal version, but it would be worth doing that.
You choose what to use in Edit->Change Preferences->ghostscript
putting the full path to gswin64c.exe should work.
Remarkably, despite all assurances in chatter on the internet
ghostscript was barfing on the windows backslash path separator, I had
to switch them to forward slashes to get it working.
It will be built tonight as usual.
