From my dealings with PostScript, I have not found any indication of the
ability to fill with a pattern, which is a real shame.  "Color" fills only,
which means you can greyscale.

My guess is that the Mac jams down the pictures from MacPaint with the 
PostScript "image" operator.  Please let me know if you find out otherwise.
