I have a NCD X-terminal whose X boot server and host are DEC stations.
I cannot use the postscript previewer to view any postscript file.

The error message is:

X Toolkit Error: Server does not have PostScript extension.
Process 11202 exited "Postscript Previewer"

Do I need to set some configure at the X boot server?
If you know the answer, please send me a e-mail. Thanks.

The NCD X Server doesn't have the PostScript Extensions necessary to display 
anything from the dxpsview process. You'd have to get an X server for the NCD
that supports the PostScript extensions (I don't know if any area available).
