From your message, it sounds like you're getting the PostScript error
"Error: UNDEFINED; OffendingCommand get."  This error usually means
that you're trying to get an unknown keyword from a dictionary, not
that the PostScript interpreter doesn't understand the word "get."
For example, if I say

	"userdict /hithere get"

I'll get an UNDEFINED error unless someone has defined a keyword named
"hithere" in userdict.

In order to solve your problem, you need to figure out what keyword
the program is trying to get from the dictionary.  This will probably
give you a clue to what's really going wrong.  Try adding the following
line to the start of your file:

	/get { (get: ) print dup == get } bind def

and see what output you're getting from PostScript.  This will print out
the last argument passed to the get operator, which will be the keyword
when you're doing a get from a dictionary.

Hope this helps.  Send me mail if I can help out any further...
