 I haven't yet ordered any of the books or used the help line, but
 Don Lancaster writes a column "Hardware Hacker" in Radio Electronics
 Magazine: occasionally the topic is PostScript, and he has also had
 2 articles on PostScript in the last couple issues of BYTE. From what
 I have seen, I would highly recommend it. 

 BTW: The latest issue (Sept) of R-E has nothing on PostScript, but has
 an interesting misc. column about perpetual motion, magneto-caloric 
 cooling devices, and "HOW to do research" !   If there is any-one who
 remembers the days before Apples, PC's, etc.: DL was the author of an
 early book on how to build a "TV-Typewriter" ( Now OUT OF PRINT, even
 by the author, I'm sure ) and TTL-Cookbook, CMOS-Cookbook ( In print
 by the author, who runs an "instant publishing" operation - sort of 
 like the Japaneese "Just in time" mfgr. - He prints the book when he
 gets your order for it ! )
