Sounds very nice!  I just wanted to say that there exists psdraft, a
Unix(tm) shell script which prints any word in outline format
diagonally across the page, for virtually any PostScript(tm) file.  It
was posted a long time ago to the `info-postscript' mailing list, and
I don't know if it was cross-posted or even if comp.lang.postscript
existed at that time.  If people want, I can post it (I believe that
it's short).
