Don Lancaster has mentioned the same sort of things to me.  His
opionion is that the version of PS for that particular machine
in cartridge form is riddled with bugs.  He has a rather extensive
list.  I believe some of them have been documented over on the
Genie Postscript roundtable.  At any rate, Don runs a free helpline
and posts his number in the computer shopper.  He doesnot support
or deal with people outside the us, and especially so for Canada
due to the multitude of problems he has had with Canadian mail
service.  I currently don't have access to the Genie roundtable
(i'm just to darned cheap!), but I think I can get a bug summary.

Cheers
Woody
