Hello out there.  We are in the process of getting TeX, LaTeX, and
so on installed here at MPR.  We have been having trouble with PicTeX,
the macro package created by Michael Wichura.  Specifically:  circles
are not drawn properly (their ends do not meet), lines do not intersect
properly and are not drawn smoothly, and so on.  

We are using Version 2.1 of TeX, 2.09 of LaTeX, and 1.1 of PicTeX, 
on Vaxen running Ultrix (Unix).  We use ArborText's DVILaser/PS driving
Apple LaserWriters for output.  

Has anybody experienced similar problems?  Any suggestions about what
might be wrong?

Thanks for any suggestions...
