I converted the following file into eexec format as shown below.  How
can I get the eexec format to work?

When I print it (in eexec format) I get:

ERROR: invalidaccess
OFFENDING COMMAND: def

STACK:

{72 mul }
/inch

----------

Original PS source:


%!PS-Adobe-1.0

/inch { 72 mul } def

/Helvetica findfont 20 scalefont setfont

1 inch 10 inch moveto

(Test) show

eexec file sent to printer:
