Hi, Dear Netter,
   Would somebody kind to tell me why the following .ps file got

%%[ Error: undefined; OffendingCommand: p0077 ]%%

when I sent it to print on a QMS 800 PostScript printer?  Or tell me
how can I increase the maxlength of userdict ?  I have so many def
that exceeds the maxlength (200) of the userdict.
Any help will be much appreciated.  Thanks.
