I have the same problem. A Sun ps printer (SPARCPrinter) is not a PostScript printer (of course not, they would have had to pay some royalties). They use their own clone interpreter, which has bugs. I ve been told that these bugs are corrected in the last version of NeWSprint/NeWSprint interpreter (sorry, I don t know the version number). --- Marco Scheurer scheurer@lithnext.epfl.ch (NeXTMail) Laboratoire d'Informatique Theorique Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne IN-Ecublens CH-1015 Lausanne (Switzerland) (+41) 21 693-2589
