Where do you remember this from? NeXT's Display Postscript(TM) is more postscript than Apple's really. The main problem with printing mac postscript on the NeXT is having to append Apple's dictionary which enables PS to emulate QuickDraw. One could also argue that this is a problem with the mac but.... Anyway, DPS is definitely licensed from Adobe Inc. and the NeXT version has enhancements such as the alphaimage operator. -- Chris Whatley Work: chari@pelican.ma.utexas.edu (NeXT Mail) (512/471-7711 ext 123) Play: chari@nueces.cactus.org (NeXT Mail) (512/499-0475) Also: chari@emx.utexas.edu
