That fix was not enough to solve the problem for me. I finally got the
thing to run (beautifully) by moving this line,
/fd (%stdout) (w) file def
several lines up so that it follows this line (line 385),
adobe_distill begin
To get the output from our printer which is connected to a VAX running UNIX,
we are going to change /usr/src/usr.lib/lpr/printjob.c so that the temporary
error file gets concatenated to the mail message if we say 'lpr -m still.ps'.
In the mean time, we are using 'tail +0f /usr/spool/lw0/errs*'.
