The dvisvgm.exe searches - for gsdll64.dll by reading registry, and gsftopk.exe searches - for gsdll64.dll in the command PATH. Therefore users should - install 64bit Ghostscript and set the command PATH for the - Ghostscript. However, don't define TEXLIVE_WINDOWS_EXTERNAL_GS - in texmf.cnf, because the preinstalled 32bit Ghostscript is - also used in several cases. - - From TeX Live 2020, the version of 64bit binaries will be - synchronized with that of 32bit binaries.
