I've printed the original I received from Margo on my LJ IIP with HP/Adobe
PostScript cartridge without errors. It's possible the file got munged, I'd
be happy to repost if everyone has problems. All I can say is that my original
works 100% using an Adobe interpreter.

PS: My choice of .ZOO was to target the widest possible audience on variou
machines. Would ARC or ZIP have been better?
