To all postscript masters,

	I am looking for a postscript filter (accounting package) for the
UNIX system on SUN4 machine running SunOS 4.1 . I would require keeping 
track of the number of pages/characters (or more...)  sent to PostScript
Apple laserWriter IINT. I have written some code for this but it always
seems to explode with some piece of postscript I send to the printer...
Do any of you have some package (public domaine of course!!) that I can
use which correctly interprets postscript and gives a correct value of pages
(quantity of data) sent to the printer (text-->Postscript or graphics...).
Something I can easily use with "pac" summary in UNIX. If you do
not have the software can you tell me if there is an anonymous FTP site 
to look this up!! Please respond by e-mail!! Thank you!!!
