I have three PostScript programs that prints examples of each font in the
font dictionary. On our old LaserWriter all I get is this message back:

%%[ Error: undefined; OffendingCommand: PXLBuildCharDict ]%% 
%%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%

NONE of these PS programs mentions PXLBuildCharDict, so apparently some
internal ROM routine does invoke it. Sound like a bug?

(version is 23.0)
