      The only way to grab the page count is in a DCS preprocessor. You cannot
      access it from within the PostScript program, the comments slip past without
      any trace.




It depends on the RIP you use. E.g. Harlequin RIPs provide an easy to use comment processor which allows to process comments (even simple comments if you wish) from within the PostScript program.
