a number of people suggested that "showpage" was not at the end of the
f2ps output.  I checked.  Its there.

The problem however, seems to be with the header line
  %!PS-Adobe-1.0
For some reason if I replace this with just simply
  %!
the image comes out fine.

Could anyone fluent in postscript venture an explanation why?
