Hi, please try saving to a similar but supported format, such as PNG.
Gif should work:
$ root

On what kind of machine are you running ? with which ROOT version ?
Hi,
I am using ubuntu 16.04 and the root version is 5.34/30. Actually my problem is exactly the same as this one.
If you are using the ROOT version distributed with Ubuntu (5.34), please make sure to install all extensions with apt-get install root-system
. However, I really recommend that you move to ROOT 6 if you can, by downloading the package from https://root.cern.
