Yesterday I saw a neet trick, at least it was a trick to me.  It was a
command on the host machine to produce rules (lines), on regular
printed output sent to a imagen.  What was done was that there was
extra info added to a regular printed page to produce very fine dotted
lines, every other line, as well as a nice border around the entire
page.  This made printed output quite nice to read.  Now for the
question, how can this be done in postscript?  I'm sure it can, but as
a postscript neophyte, I have no idea how.  If someone could email me,
I would appreciate it.  Thanks in advance!
