{ Long Previous Discussion on dvi2ps (Kevin Coombes) and Tomas Rokicki's
dvips}

Has anyone gotten the lprep68 and Tomas Rokicki's dvips to work together.
Yes, I know about Kevin Coombes dvi2ps v3.1, but I would like to stay
with dvips if possible.

I've been using dvips by Tomas Rokicki and have been very happy with it.
As Chris Torek pointed out, It supports \psfig and \special as well as
other ways to include postscript.  It also uses the pk fonts.  The
best feature is that it can create fonts from METAFONTS files.

{ dvips can be ftp from labrea.stanford.edu in pub/dvips421.tar.Z }
