I am attempting to view SAS generated color PS on a NeXTdimensions.   
Here's what happens:

If I use YAP the image is in color.
If I use Preview the image is in B&W but dithered for color (ie the
	colored lines look like greyscale--they look bad).
If I use Mme2.0 and preview a color plot, the previewer uses color.


The SAS PS file is pretty trashy, no comments anywhere.  Anybody have a  
clue as to why my SAS PS file only is in color in Yap and not in Preview?   
Is it just very poor PS on SAS's part? (the SAS color ps file is using the  
setrgbcolor command.  I can see them in the file).
